Equipping institutional and faith-based leaders to navigate change and foster transformative encounters.

David in an intercultural leadership setting

I have spent more than a decade working at the intersection of faith, culture, and institutional leadership. As Associate Secretary for Intercultural Leadership at the Canadian Council of Churches, Educational Consultant for the World Council of Churches, and program designer for ecumenical initiatives spanning five continents, I understand what it takes to hold a community together, keeping diversity at the core of its identity.

In Practice

What this work looks like

Facilitating residential intensives and blended learning programs that equip leaders to navigate cultural difference with depth and practice, whether they are forming a congregation, a faculty, or a country team.

Managing the relational, logistical, and programmatic complexity of multi-institutional, multi-country ecumenical programs from design through delivery.

Producing research and facilitating reflection that connects theological tradition to the concrete institutional and cultural challenges communities face.

Creating conditions for genuine encounter between communities with different traditions, languages, and cultural frameworks.

Both the theological and the institutional, held together in one practice.
