custom services: cli will customize any training or planning service to meet the needs of the diocese or parish. Working closely with leadership, we will create the training or planning process leveraging the proven leadership practices and methodologies. Three other services included in custom services are the disciple maker index, parish missionary disciples, and the episcopal ongoing formation sessions. Disciple maker index (dmi) - the dmi is the first of its kind. The dmi measures, tracks and draws correlations among 75 factors that influence the spiritual development of a parish. The dmi provides factual information that can help identify, clarify, and set priorities in a pastoral plan. Episcopal ongoing formation and support (eofs) sessions provide skill-building and coaching to bishops as they envision a strong future for their local churches and respond to the leadership challenges they encounter. Each three day session offers fraternity and prayer that enable a bishop to contemplate his role and responsibilities together with brother bishops and in light of the finest leadership practices. Parish missionary disciples is a training program that provides a pathway by which parishes transform catholic believers into missionary disciples. This training deepens onesrelationship with jesus christ, transforms one into a disciple, and empowers one to meaningfully, joyfully, and respectfully give witness to how jesus christ lives in our hearts, influences our lives and calls us to holiness.

diocesan consulting services (dcs) - although consulting services are unique and varied, we highlight two main offerings:build & maintain a cohesive leadership team: cli assists the bishop and his key staff to develop quality, collaborative relationships among themselves and to become a strong, focused leadership team for the diocese. Discern & proclaim a mutually shared vision and diocesan priorities: cli helps to guide a bishop and his prayerfully discerned envisioning leadership team with the creation of a mutually shared vision for the diocese focused on a sacred purpose, core values, a 5-year statement of vision and 3 priorities. All consulting services are structured to facilitate strong, collaborative relationships between key staff and team members. Our services emphasize as well among key staff, team members and their bishop respectful communication, a common vision for future ministry and unified support for accompanying decisions.
