What Our Clients Say
“I fell in love with the concept of social enterprise business when I launched a nonprofit restaurant that employs women who are fleeing crisis situations. I had the honor of being hired as the CEO of a large nonprofit that employs over 250 people, many of whom have disabilities or face other disadvantages in work. People Launching has helped me gain clarity on the core issues facing us, create an action plan, and hold me accountable to be the leader my organization needs so that we can fulfill and expand our mission with excellence.”

“I wanted to continue engaging the Muslim community but didn’t know exactly how to merge my passions, gifting and language skills in a meaningful way in the American context. People Launching was able to skillfully bring out my vision and mission and help me launch my new initiative with clarity on how God wants me to love and serve Muslims in my community. People Launching helped me stay true to who I am and the gifts and skills God has given me.”

“At the beginning of the second year ministry, the number of youth we served doubled. We were overwhelmed with the growth and experienced severe growing pains. Constantly putting out fires and responding to problems, we were unable to able to truly live out our mission. Feeling like we hit a brick wall in ministry, we came to People Launching for help. Through our coaching sessions, we were able to step back to gain perspective on our current struggles and come up with solutions that aligned with our ministry’s mission and heart. With their help, we have started “Launch”, a discipleship initiative to give teens opportunities for them to be equipped with practical life skills and explore their interests, strengths, and passions to live out God's calling for their lives. The coaching we received from People Launching is one of the greatest catalysts of our ministry.”

"John has been serving us with his knowledge of the Enneagram and his gospel centered focus to better assess Acts 29 US Southeast applicants. This provides a good framework by which we can know how a person process and perceives the world around and how they interact with what they experience. The best part about John's work with this tool is the hope of the gospel he brings to the conversation. Because of the power of the Holy Spirit, we can have hope that we will see movement from vice to virtue in our lives and in the lives of others. John's work with our applicants has made a good assessment process better in the last year."
