Organizations rarely fail because their leaders don’t care. Usually, a bad design is producing the result. I start at the result you don’t want and work backward to what’s actually causing it — in person, in one room, in one day.
I work with purpose driven leaders of professional services, and churches — where the person setting the direction is often still the person doing the work.
Chosen. One room. One day. One plan.
Most leaders know something is wrong. Very few know what is actually causing it. So we don’t start with a proposal. We start in a room.
In the room, we work backward from the result you want, and we ask the question most teams skip: why. Then we follow the answer back to the thing producing the result you have.
The work starts in the room and doesn’t end there. Some of the clearest answers arrive a day or two later, once I’ve sat with what we found. I’d rather hand you the right plan than a fast one you have to redo.
Most people book one thing and find out in the room that they needed another. That is the point of the room.
You tell me the result you don’t want. No slides, no template, no assumptions about what your problem is.
From the result, to what your team actually does, to how the work is built, to the belief underneath it.
Not a diagnosis you take home and puzzle over. A written plan built on what we actually found.
Sometimes it’s you alone, because you’re the one who has to see it first before you can ask anyone else to. Sometimes it’s your leadership team, your staff, or your board — including part-time and contract staff, because the people closest to the work usually know the most about what’s wrong with it. Anyone who can’t be there, I interview separately.
We decide which on the call.
Triangle and up to 150 miles. Remote if the drive doesn’t work.
Pastors and Founder-Led, professional services; churches — consultants, coaches, agencies, creative studios, practitioners — where the mission has outgrown the way you’re running it.
If you already have a COO, a CFO, and a department that owns this, you don’t need me. I’ll tell you that on the call.
That’s the work. The only question left is who’s in the room.
A deposit holds the date. The balance is due the morning of the session, before we start. Payment plans available — ask on the call.
I don’t take money from people I can’t help. Every engagement starts with a free 15-minute call, and if Chosen isn’t the right move, I’ll say so.
Where this happens. In person across the Triangle and anywhere inside about 150 miles — Greensboro, Winston-Salem, Charlotte, Fayetteville, Wilmington, Greenville. Farther than that, travel is quoted. If the drive doesn’t work, it can happen remote.
You receive a written plan for how the team should be built.
You receive a written plan for clear rules and workflows your current staff can run.
You receive a written path from first visit to full participation.
You receive a written plan for the tools, the rules, and the training.
A brand is a decision before it’s a design. Before anyone touches a logo or builds a website, someone has to decide what you’re actually saying and why it should matter to the people you’re trying to reach. That’s the work I do in the room — the building comes after, and it doesn’t have to be with me.
First, the brand track of Chosen — One day in the room. Name, message, tone, mission, vision, purpose, audience, positioning, competitors, and the three words that define you. I evaluate direction for color and typography here. I don’t design a logo in this room.
You leave with a brand strategy. Everything a designer needs to build your identity correctly — your message, your tone, how you’re positioned, and the visual direction. Take it to any designer you like. I’m glad to recommend one.
Or I build it. Logo and full brand visuals, website design, social media kit, SEO setup, and a care plan that covers hosting, domain, and one email address for your first year. What you paid for Chosen is credited toward it. I doesn’t consider a client for website/brand work unless Chosen surfaces that it’s actually a fit; Chosen is a fit-check, not an automatic pass-through. All build work routes to work.ezekieltaylor.com.
Creative engagements are Triangle-based — Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill — because the work happens in person.
JW Sports Photography needed a brand that could keep up with the action. We designed an AI-enhanced logo, built out a full visual identity with voice and tone, and launched a sleek website complete with a lead generation funnel — positioning JW as the go-to name in sports photography.
In our work, I initiated a rebrand for Renaissance Grooming Lounge, commencing with their brand identity, color scheme, typography, and tone/voice. This comprehensive approach enabled us to deliver prestigious web development and design, a revamped logo, business cards, portraits, videography, and additional elements to enhance their brand presence.
In our work and partnership with Talk2me Consulting, our efforts included designing a user-friendly and visually appealing website that effectively represents Talk2me Consulting’s mission and services. We developed a cohesive branding strategy, including logo design, that aligns with their values of connection, support, and collaboration.
Structure is one thing. The people leading inside it are another.
You can fix an org chart and still have a team that doesn’t work. This is the work of leading the people who are inside the design — especially when the design is changing.
You leave with: a written plan for how leaders are developed, supported, and handed responsibility.
Tell me the result you don’t want. I’ll tell you what it takes to get in the room.
