At FaithSearch Partners, we know that the most successful leaders align culture with strategy—and that alignment is often what sets thriving organizations apart.
That’s why we created this brief video series, hosted by Dr. Andy Westmoreland, Senior Consultant and former university president. In these candid conversations, Dr. Westmoreland speaks with Kimberley Wiedefeld and Dr. Jacqueline Gustafson—two respected leaders—about how culture shapes strategy in real, lasting ways.
This series also reflects the broader mission of FaithSearch Advisors, the consulting arm of FaithSearch Partners. Through Advisors, we walk alongside organizations beyond the search—helping boards and executives navigate leadership transitions, assess organizational culture, and ensure strategic alignment at every level.
With decades of firsthand leadership experience, our team brings not only insight but understanding. And this series is just one example of how we help mission-driven organizations lead with clarity, conviction, and purpose.
