What Makes Us Different

Client Testimonials:

  • "Our large UCC congregation made the right decision to hire Tod Bolsinger for our strategic planning process. Tod's approach to this process is unique -- he builds leadership capacity so we can continue to evolve and grow. Because he listens so carefully, his observations are on target. Tod helped us learn how to experiment our way into our future, using our unique charisms and gifts to make a difference in our community and world. Tod is knowledgeable, creative, funny, caring, responsive and engaging. He made this process fun and relevant. I can't say enough positive things about Tod so I urge you to find out for yourself what a gem he is."

  • "In this extended period of liminality for the church in America, Tod Bolsinger is a gifted guide in the wilderness. Not only was he able to bring clarity as to where we were when we began or work, he was able to chart a clear and compelling course forward. His honesty, integrity, and candor served us well—and we had a lot of fun, too!  Our church is emerging from a difficult chapter with positivity, resolve, and HOPE!" ​

  • “I feel gratitude! I have hope. A new intimacy with Elders and leadership. I feel like we’re galvanized. We will land, and we will practice.”

  • “Great insight into the processes of change in an organization. A great reminder to keep raw emotions out of the mix and lead through the difficult transformation that the congregation needs to experience to set it up for future growth and life.”

  • "Working with AE Sloan Leadership has allowed me to understand and refine my vision for the church and to communicate it with both conviction and clarity."
