I help make companies more profitable.
Your team is your biggest expense — and most of them are giving you half the effort you're paying for. Not because they're bad people. Because no one is seeing them.
When people feel seen, they come alive — and every dollar you spend on labor is worth more.
What many owners get back for every dollar they pay in labor — because their people aren't fully showing up.
You're paying a full dollar. Getting half the return.
Every company has what I'd call a labor leak. You're paying a full dollar for every employee, but a lot of them are only giving you 50 cents of effort. They're not bad people. They're just not seen. They're not bought in.
If I can move that from 50 cents to 75 cents across your team, the math pays for me several times over.
"What I've seen is, when people are seen — really seen — they come alive. They show up differently. And when they show up differently, they go the extra mile."
An outside voice. In your building. On your team's side.
I come in as an outside voice. I'm not part of the hierarchy. I can't fire anyone. I have no agenda — which means people talk to me in ways they won't talk to their manager.
Leadership Alignment
One-on-ones with you or your key leaders. I need to understand what you're building and how you're communicating it — so I can reinforce it on the floor.
A Group Touch
A Lunch & Learn, a recorded message, or a team spotlight — planting seeds with the full team. Built around what's actually happening in your building, not generic training material.
Rounds
Regular, intentional, one-on-one conversations with your people — in the break room, on the floor, wherever they are. I stop. I ask. I listen. And over time, they start coming to me.
Not a program. A person.
EAPs are good for crisis situations — someone in a bad place who needs a hotline. But what's the utilization rate on yours? Most companies see under 1%. Half your team probably doesn't even know the number, even if it's on the break room wall.
Team Care doesn't wait for someone to call. I'm already in the building. They know my name. They have my cell number.
"An office manager called me at 11pm on a Saturday, frantic — she thought her husband and son had been swept away in a flood. She didn't call the EAP. She called me. That's the difference."
Presence before performance.
Presence alone creates nice teams. Coaching alone creates achievement without connection. Presence and coaching together build cultures of excellence — where people perform because they feel genuinely seen and connected to the mission.
Leadership Alignment
I meet monthly with you or your key leaders to understand the culture, your priorities, and what your team needs to hear — so I can become an extension of your voice they'll actually trust.
Group Content
A monthly touchpoint with the full team — a Lunch & Learn, a recorded message, or a team spotlight. Not a generic wellness module. Content built on what I'm actually seeing in your building.
Individual Rounds
Where trust is built. I walk your floor and break rooms regularly, stop to check in one-on-one, notice who's struggling before it shows up in performance — and hold everything in strict confidence.
I'm introduced to the team and begin regular rounds with no agenda — just presence. Employees see a friendly face showing up consistently.
Employees begin to recognize and approach me. Conversations happen. Culture patterns emerge, and I start feeding insights back to leadership.
Relationships are established. I'm approached proactively, and crisis care happens naturally. I'm the person they call — not the hotline on the break room wall.
Team Care becomes part of the rhythm of the workplace. Leadership coaching and culture workshops layer in as the relationship deepens. The ROI compounds.
Culture workshops & group coaching.
When employees already know me from regular rounds, workshops land differently. I'm not an outside consultant arriving with a program — I'm someone who's been in the building, knows their names, and has earned their trust.
Culture & Connection
Helps teams name what's working, surface what's not, and build shared language around how they want to work together. Especially effective after change or turnover.
Communication Under Pressure
Practical tools for clear communication when stakes are high — listening, clarity, feedback, and navigating hard conversations. Built on 30 years of public communication.
Leadership That Lasts
A small-group coaching experience for the leaders on your floor: leading from strength, handling team dynamics, managing pressure, and building trust with the people you lead.
Group Coaching
A structured experience for 4–8 participants focused on a shared challenge or goal. Works well for leadership teams, new supervisor cohorts, or any group in transition.
Simple, scalable pricing.
No setup fees. No program costs. No surprise line items. If your team is giving you 50% effort right now, Team Care doesn't really cost you anything — it pays for itself in the labor value it unlocks.

Five things you won't get from an app or a program.
Local & Consistent
I'm based in Springfield, Missouri, and I'll be in your building regularly — not quarterly. Trust is built through repetition, not through portals.
Chaplaincy & Coaching in One
Most providers offer presence but not coaching. I bring both — the relational depth of chaplaincy and the structured skill of an ICF-certified coach.
Faith-Present, Not Faith-Imposed
Team Care operates from a faith foundation but never requires it of anyone. My approach on rounds is relational first. Faith conversations happen only when they're invited.
Confidential by Design
What employees share stays with me. I operate under the same ethical framework as an ICF-certified coach. HR and leadership never receive reports on individual conversations.
Not a Vendor. A Relationship.
You can't buy this outcome with a subscription or a software license. It's built, week by week, through a trusted person who shows up. That takes time — and it compounds.
Hey, I'm David.
I'm an ICF-Certified Coach (ACC) and AACC-Certified, and the founder of Cornerstone Coaching Solutions and Team Care. I have 30 years of experience in church ministry, campus leadership, and organizational chaplaincy.
Since 2021, I've served as chaplain for Missouri State University's football team and athletic department. Before launching Team Care independently in September 2025, I was a corporate chaplain with two national chaplaincy organizations.
I'm based in Springfield, Missouri — close enough to most of southwest Missouri to be in your building regularly, not theoretically.
Let me tell you about Gary Daily. Gary was a big deal at Walmart — ran a store in Macon, Georgia that turned over its entire inventory every 26 hours. He eventually moved back to the Ozarks and ended up in one of the churches I was leading, as a volunteer.
We were doing something new. People were uncertain, giving half effort. But Gary was a team whisperer. He wasn't on staff. He had no agenda. He just showed up and had individual conversations with people. He'd repeat what I was trying to say — and they believed it, coming from him, in a way they didn't from me.
In every leadership situation I've been in, I've needed a Gary Daily. He did it as a volunteer. What happens when you have someone doing it who's actually built for it? That's what I do.
What business owners ask.
We already have an EAP. Why do we need this?
EAPs are good for crisis situations, but most companies see under 1% utilization — half the team doesn't even know the number. The difference: I'm not waiting for someone to call. I'm already in the building. They know my name. That's not a hotline; that's a relationship.
Does Team Care push a religious agenda?
No. Team Care operates from a faith foundation, but my approach on rounds is relational first. Faith conversations happen only when an employee invites them — never scripted into a visit, and no one is ever asked about their beliefs.
What does David tell HR about what employees share?
Nothing — without the employee's permission. I operate under the same ethical framework as an ICF-certified coach: strict confidentiality. The only exceptions are the standard ones — imminent harm to self or others. Everything else stays with me.
How long before we see results?
The relationship-building phase takes 60–90 days before employees fully trust and approach me proactively. Most companies notice a difference in team cohesion and manager-reported morale within the first quarter. The ROI compounds over time — this is not a one-quarter fix.
What's the first step?
A 20–30 minute conversation. No pitch — just a real conversation about your team, your culture, and what you're seeing, to find out whether there's a fit. If there is, I'll propose a specific engagement based on what I learned.
Start with a 20-minute conversation.
No pitch. Just a real conversation about your team and what you're seeing. If there's a fit, we'll take the next step together.
