Kelly Stickel

Leadership Coach

Kelly Stickel is a growth strategist, pastor, and leadership coach with a passion for unlocking the potential inside people and the organizations they lead. As the founder of Parallel Network and Mindcraft Coaching & Chaplaincy, Kelly works with executives, teams, and entire companies to foster healthier culture, stronger leadership, and deeper purpose in every environment — from boardrooms to break rooms. For over two decades, Kelly has led as a non-denominational pastor of a dynamic large church, where he’s become known for his practical, relational teaching style that reaches the unchurched, dechurched, and spiritually curious alike. His heart for people is matched by a strategic mind — blending insight with empathy, and vision with action. Whether delivering keynote addresses, facilitating executive coaching sessions, or quietly walking alongside employees through chaplaincy care, Kelly’s approach is always the same: Empower. Enrich. Equip. He believes people were created on purpose, for a purpose, for such a time as this. That belief fuels his mission to awaken the giant within individuals, teams, and cultures everywhere.
