Jon Hand, Mdiv., PCC
Transformed Leaders Lead Transformations

I am a Professional Certified Coach with the International Coaching Federation. I am a leadership coach, leadership development consultant, coaching educator, and expert in leadership health and sustainability. Over the past 25 years I’ve been in faith-based, pastoral, non-profit, business and entrepreneurial leadership roles.

For the past 10 years I’ve been specializing in developing tools, processes, and resources to empower leaders to lead better and deeper. In addition to executive leadership coaching I have developed a Soul Coaching approach for faith-based leaders, business leaders, and non-profit leaders across the UK, Canada, and the U.S. 

I integrate a four-level assessment process called Seeds, Roots, Shoots, and Fruit. We work together to identify inner invitations for growth (Seeds) while exploring root foundations of character, identity, and motivation (Roots) that feed new growth behaviours and new skill integration into your life and leadership (Shoots). Our goal is that you bear lasting fruit in living out your purpose in the flourishing of the people you love and organizations you lead (Fruit).

Jon specializes a change model called S.P.I.R.E for helping leaders integrate a greater fullness of life into your personal transformation and the leadership roles you steward. The S.P.I.R.E. model: 

Spiritual Depth
Physical Well-being
Intellectual Clarity
Relational Health
Emotional Wholeness

My Coaching
My coaching uses a multi-disciplinary approach to facilitating greater change in your life and leadership. I integrate neuroscience, co-active coaching, ancient spiritual practices, psychology, and Enneagram into the processes and tools I customize to facilitate your breakthrough.

My People
I work best with business, non-profit, and church leaders who are ready to get to the root of their challenges and patterns to transform old patterns into new ways of being and leading. I want to work with people who know there’s no short-cuts to lasting transformation. I, especially, enjoy in helping Millennial leaders navigate the 30s Wall (spiritual and emotional awakening) and early 40s Fulcrum (role alignment and transition)

My Impact
My clients become non-anxious risk-taking leaders who lead from a much deeper place. Those who coach with me for a season tend to have a more refined sense of clarity of purpose and live out their calling with intentionality and focus. These leaders are more integrated and able to be more courageously present and joyful with themselves, others, and God. This results in having greater influence, margin, creativity, and impact.

Types of Coaching Offerings

  • Do you feel a longing or a nagging sense there’s more impact you could have? Do you feel disconnected from yourself and don’t know how to reconnect with your passion? Do you sense there’s more depth to your life and leadership than you feel capable of finding by reading another book or taking another class? The Journey of Transformation is a months-long journey of prioritizing your growth so that you can embed lasting change and lead with greater depth, passion, impact, and wisdom. 

     This is a months-long journey where I guide you into the roots of your life and leadership. I learn your story and we identify the ways you want to grow and need to deepen spiritual, emotionally, and psychologically as a leader. I use the S.P.I.R.E model (Spiritual depth, Physical well-being, Intellectual clarity, Relational Health, Emotional Wholeness) to help you grow the 5 essential aspects of thriving as a being made in God’s image.

    I curate books, podcasts, spiritual practices, coaching tools, and Enneagram Type Indicator for you to learn and experience new ways of being / living. We meet regularly to debrief and discern what you are learning through the tools, review spiritual and emotional practices, and reshape unhelpful narratives that hold you back from living fully in the ways you desire. 

    If you’ve done the work, you will be deeper, freer, non-anxiously wiser, and more connected to yourself, others, and God. The hope is that you will experience aspects of transformation in expected and very unexpected ways. I make myself available to you any time between our monthly meetings to process things as they come up. 

    This is a bit of a deeper route and is for those who are ready for some deeper transformational work. This approach requires 10-12 hrs a month of homework reflections. We load you up with tools and resources for you to get to know yourself better, expand your soul, and lead from a place of transformation over a period of months. This coaching is designed to deepen your being so your doing flows from a deeper and truer well. 

    The greatest gift you can give those you love and lead is that you lead from your own transformation.

    Sessions are 90 minutes

  • This kind of coaching can be great when you find yourself not knowing how to move forward in an area. This coaching approach is designed to help you get unstuck, remove a barrier, or do some digging around in the roots of your soul, your situation, or your system to better understand what might be holding you back.

    This coaching is best done in bursts of 3-6 sessions. Just enough to keep you moving again on a better track. The greatest gift you can give those you love and lead is a version of you that is focused, confident, wise, and generous. Are you ready to be a better leader and get unstuck?

    This coaching helps you get in touch with your growth goals and get under the surface to address the thing under the thing. We work on ways of understanding what is happening deeper in your soul and respond to the inner invitations to pursue growth, break free from a fear, and find a confident path forward in the ways you identify are important and vital to your life and leadership.

    This coaching is best is you are in a season of facing some unique challenge or barriers that are holding you back from moving forward with clarity, courage, or confidence.

    Sometimes the best gift you give those you love and lead is having the courage to move forward with greater clarity and courage.

  • Ever feel like you need a tune up in how well your gifts and skills fit with your leadership role? Do you sense some kind of change is needed but don’t know what that looks like? Do you feel burn out coming on or simply boredom in your work? Maybe you feel like you’ve lost your passion mojo and don’t know how to get it back?

    This coaching is meant to get you back in touch with a profound passion for your work so you can lead with greater energy. I want to help you bring your most impactful self to your work that turns or re-turns your work into a calling.

    This coaching curates tools, surveys, timelines, and deeper reflection to reconnect with yourself and clarify the very unique message, mission, or people you were born to impact the most.

    If you are in the 40s Fulcrum (late 30s to mid-40s when you rethink how you are using your gifts and time in your work) or facing a sense that it’s time to move on, this coaching can be very helpful to clarify what is next for you.

    Sessions are 60-90 minute options

  • We all have seasons when we need to make a life or career transition. What transition are you navigating? Job loss or new job? Newborn or empty nest? Finishing a career or just starting? Maybe you are sensing a transition is coming but don’t know what it means. This coaching helps you get to the root of the transition you are in and prepare you for what’s next while paying attention to the invitations for transformation along the way.

    This mode of coaching is best for areas of challenge, impasse, unclarity, or transitions. This coaching helps you pull out the clarity you need of yourself, your situation, and the bold risky steps God and your life is inviting you to take. 

    Sessions are 60 to 90minutes

  • I burned out badly and had a nervous breakdown in my mid-30s and I am passionate about helping leaders avoid what happened to me.

    Do you feel burned out or you are losing your mojo, feeling unmotivated, and lacking energy for what you do? Do you feel dread and anxiety when the emails hit your inbox or you have to face that certain person, then this coaching is for you.

    This coaching helps you prevent a burnout close call or assess how far down the burnout road you might be.

    We locate where you are and make a recovery plan while helping you get to the root of the burnout contributors so it doesn’t happen again.

  • Sometimes you get into a spot when it sure would be helpful to have someone help untangle some relational knots in your marriage or key relationship and give some translation for how to communicate better.

    I love doing this type of coaching. I help you assess your goals, find those places where you are missing each other, and give you tools for how to break miscommunication cycles and anxious patterns. I use Enneagram in my approach and fold in all the coaching tools I use to help people get to the roots, plant new shoots of growth, and bear better fruit in your lives and relationship.

    Sessions are 60 minutes

    I also help couples find greater clarity on the goals they want to pursue together as a couple, as a family, or as parents. Sometimes we come to seasons where we say we are going to do something and want to do something but can’t seem to pull the trigger. Or we feel that life is living us, rather than us living life.

    I help couples slow down the carousel and get to the root of what keeps them from living a more on-purpose life aligned with their values and dreams as a family. 

    Sessions are 60

  • Are you in your early to late 50s?

    Maybe you find yourself sensing a shift is needed in how you relate to your work?

    You’ve been building your career for years and it worked! Congrats. However, what is next? More building, more accumulating? Chasing even more success? What if there’s a shift that your soul is being invited to make? What if it’s time to begin releasing your work to others and take on a new identity as mentor, coach, or elder in your life and leadership?

    This coaching uses tools and curates resources to help you prepare to shift your role in ways that are life-giving for you and for those who work with you.

    You provide the goal and I provide a process to help you transition your way of working and put up the role of being a wise, non-anxious, life-giving elder for those you love and lead.

  • Does the team you work with seem to be lacking something? Maybe you can’t put your finger on it, but you sense the team could be functioning better.

    Maybe you are facing a challenge as a team or launching into a new vision, but the team members don’t have clarity about their best contribution and the team seems to not get traction.

    Team coaching is designed to help your team come together with greater clarity and confidence to tackle big dreams and complex situations.

    Sessions are 60-90 minutes

  • This 10-month cohort is designed to foster spiritual depth and emotional wholeness in a supportive group setting, with an emphasis on inner transformation. Participants will meet monthly to engage in discussions and reflections based on assigned learning resources, including books, articles, and videos that focus on spiritual and emotional development. Each month, members will receive curated content intended to deepen their understanding of key themes and apply them to their lives.

    The cohort aims to cultivate a safe environment where participants can share personal insights, struggles, and growth experiences. This journey encourages a balance between individual reflection and group interaction, allowing participants to explore their spirituality and emotional health in a holistic way. Group members will also have the opportunity to work through questions, guided exercises, and reflective practices that support inner transformation.

    The goal of the cohort is to help participants not only deepen their personal spirituality but also achieve emotional balance and wholeness, enabling them to live more authentic, purposeful lives. Through shared learning and mutual support, group members will be challenged and encouraged in both their spiritual and emotional journeys, ultimately growing in self-awareness and interpersonal relationships.
