Todd Olsen

MANAGING PARTNER & COACH TRAINER

“How can I have an even greater Kingdom impact as I enter into the most productive phase of my life (my 60’s – 80’s)?”
That question propelled Todd to leave a successful 30-year career negotiating multi-billion dollar deals at Ford Motor Co. He has since devoted his time and energy to developing leaders who create lasting influence and legacy.

Todd coaches business leaders who live in challenging places in the world and desire to see God’s kingdom come in their workplace.

He launched his coaching business in 2016. Although he saw decent results with traditional coaching methods, it was using the Encounter Coaching method of inviting Jesus into the conversation where he witnessed exponential transformation with clients. 

Todd and Kathy, his wife of over 35 years, live in Michigan and have five kids and six grandkids. Todd enjoys mountain biking and the outdoors. Having lived overseas, he also loves cultivating friendships with those from different cultures.

Jason Wells

MANAGING PARTNER & COACH TRAINER

Jason’s heart to lead people into deeper intimacy with Jesus has compelled him into 30 years of full-time ministry. For most, that place of deepest intimacy occurs when meeting God in the place of suffering – a place Jason is well acquainted. It is in those places that Jason meets his clients and empowers them to meet Jesus in profound, life-changing ways.

Though possessing dual masters degrees in Counseling and Ministry, it was the transformational power of Encounter Coaching that fully captured his heart.

Jason now uses the powerful tools of Encounter Coaching to develop and impact Kingdom-minded leaders at the deepest levels of the heart.

Jason resides in Colorado with his wife and three boys.

Etienne’s God encounters have marked him so powerfully, he has made it his life mission to help others experience the same.

As a pioneer, leader and community developer, Etienne has seen God come through many seemingly impossible situations. It is now his joy to assist people in conquering their challenges by being aware of God’s involvement in their lives. 

Etienne has coached and trained in over 30 nations.
