Team Development

You replicate what you are, not what you preach.

Every leader is in their own process of growth, but when teams take that journey together, good teams can become truly great. Partnering with core leadership teams in this process is the most effective way that cultures reset, relationships thrive, and organizations reach their most daring goals.

Team Formation Training & Leadership Development:

  • Even the best leadership teams become stuck. We will explore the unknown gifts and unseen limiting factors that have prevented you from stepping into new territory so that you can chart a new way forward.

  • An organization that honors the developmental process of growth is a powerful place of healing and maturity. Starting with your key leaders and staff, together we will design a process and structure for your church to make discipleship and formation a core part of your culture.

  • Serving within the local church is more demanding than ever. Transformation is a long process and the fruit of your work will be shaped as your team cultivates an awareness of your “inner space and outer pace.”

  • When trust is questioned—no matter how pleasant the workplace—people withhold, even talented people withdraw, and reality gets confused. Trust is the home base, the bottom of the pyramid, the foundation to building something that will hold a culture capable of carrying a great purpose.

    Effective feedback is an essential doorway into deeper trust and powerful team culture.

What Teams Have Experienced

“Their team is gifted in holding space and being discerning for people. They have the unique ability to guide people down a path to rest, recover and discover. Our team and organization has benefited greatly from being with Bryan [Rouanzoin]. I am immensely grateful for his willingness to offer his strengths to us.”

“Roots&Embers is a tremendous resource for any leader, organization, church or community, drawing from the deep wells of their giftings, experiences, relationships and training. Their insight, wisdom, thoughtfulness, creativity and genuine love and care are life-giving. They care deeply for the Church and are passionate about leading people towards greater experience of and engagement with God and the rest, fulfillment, purpose and meaning that God offers us.”

Bryan [Rouanzoin] has served as a coach, a conversation partner, a collaborator, an ideator, an intercessor, and more. He’s discipled. He’s facilitated times of reflection. He’s taught. And, he’s counseled. Bryan is one of the kindest, most compassionate people I know and one of the most well-rounded, well-read and thoughtful communicators that I’ve been privileged to engage with, learn from and partner with. And, best of all, he is humble, authentic, candid and courageous; unafraid to admit his limitations and faults in his pursuit of healthy living, helping to create an environment where others are invited to do the same.”
