Our Clients
Our clients are ready to reach beyond the status quo, expand their vision, and engage stakeholders in new & meaningful ways. These organizations recognize that embracing a strategic shift in how they operate and communicate will transform the hearts of those who engage and give generously, as well as the lives of those who are served. Some of our clients include:
Faith-Based Institutions
Our firm specializes in the facilitation of strategic planning, pastoral planning, and synods. We have worked extensively with (arch)dioceses and other Church apostolates to prepare for the future with confidence and hope, while inspiring great generosity at unprecedented levels.
Planning Works When the People for Whom It is Intended, Own It
When planning with clergy and religious, together with the lay faithful, we have learned that it must be their plan, not that of a small group of leaders, or outsiders. The people will plan if called upon. They will be grateful that their Church has invited them into partnership, rather from leading by decree. We know this because we’ve witnessed it. Every diocese and ministry has generous and talented people who are waiting to be inspired to offer their “yes” to step forward and serve. And such authentic engagement leads to greater giving.
Our team of expert planners is ready to design and facilitate a customized planning process that is fitting to the culture and delivers concrete results.
