AL is a Coach with Multiplicity Network,  a team of pastors who provide coaching and consulting for multi-site church expansion.  AL also has extensive experience in the business arena and is the President of Creative Coaching Concepts Inc.

In addition to his pastoral experience, he has 25 years of business management experience. He has coached corporate executives, directors, and managers at companies such as Allstate, Verizon, Grainger, Westell, and Johnson & Johnson. Also, he has been a coach for the U.S. Government and the automotive industry.

AL has earned several certifications in coaching which include the prestigious ICF- Professional Certified Coach (PCC) designation. He holds these advanced certifications: Certified Leadership and Talent Management Coach, Certified Small Business Coach, Certified Life Coach, Certified Lifestyle Fitness Coach, and Certified Career Management Coach. And, he earned the Registered Leadership Designation from the McKinley Group.

AL is also a member of the National Speakers Association and has delivered over 1000 inspirational talks.

I practice what I teach in the CLTMC for church leaders. Recently I had a situation arise with one of my staff where I experienced a real sense of betrayal. Overall this staff member is an exceptional and very gifted employee. Nevertheless, the perception of betrayal is not easy to overcome and I really thought I was going to lose this valuable player. However, I was able to apply key learning from the CLTMC material that helped me to adjust my leadership style and “save” this employee. Consequently we were able to work through the issue, trust has been restored, and our working relationship is stronger than it has ever been. The corporate world has already begun to understand the importance of effective talent management. The church must acquire this skill in order to effectively attract, develop, and retain quality people.

~John Palmieri, Multi-Site Pastor, New Life Community Church

He is then able to respond to each client as a unique individual. He coaches with vigor and commitment to the participants. Al Garcia is able to present information in such a way that clients become energized and enthusiastic about their future employment and the work required to obtain it.
~Frances A. Lopez, Adult Educator, City Colleges of Chicago


Pastor Al Garcia, while leading the weekly workshop, conducted the meeting with sensitivity to what we were all experiencing. Sensing the stress and anxiety levels of the group, his voice communicated his genuine care and concern for our present trials but hope for a better future. Specifically, I enjoyed the integration of both biblical skills along with practical ideas. I was struck by the principle that he taught that if you have experienced a bad job environment where you needed to personally make some changes, that anticipating that the same issues would not reappear in the next job situation would be unwise. I knew that principle in relationships with people but had not ever thought about it in a job context. I look forward to future Career Workshops conducted by Pastor Al Garcia.
~Leanna Enders, Bank Supervisor

Having worked with Al Garcia in multiple capacities, including New Life Community Church, I have always found him to be compassionate, intuitive and to have genuine concern for the person or persons he is working with while never losing sight of each person’s individuality. Al Garcia is a man of integrity, character, experience and insight. He is a pleasure to work with. Al Garcia has been successful in coaching a wide variety of clients in numerous areas of the work force, clients to include but not limited to Allstate, Verizon, Johnson & Johnson, New Life Community Church and Multiplicity Network. Al Garcia has a great depth of experience that gives him a unique ability to coach individuals with varying needs in the corporate setting. These experiences have distinctively equipped him to provide consultation and coaching in the areas of organizational and leadership development. His track record with clients is impressive and speaks for itself! As a registered nurse and leader, I know how very important it is to employ associates who can bring purpose, meaning, engagement, satisfaction, and balance to their place of employment. Managing an education department and its staff can be challenging for me with communication and team work being at the core of our existence. Al Garcia is someone who was able to provide techniques and practical steps that produce the desired results within an organization. Al Garcia is the person I reach out to when I am contemplating a career decision or am faced with major challenges, both work related and personal. Al Garcia shares his God given vision for leadership and is committed to his clients’ success! It is a privilege to know and work alongside Al Garcia.
