Developing your Half-Time Strategy to Win

The very best football teams make “adjustments” to attain positive outcomes in the second half of the game. Councils are no different. Why keep doing things that aren’t working. Our Fraternal Mission staff will provide time-tested ways to help change the culture and achieve short term wins to help your council grow.

Turning Your Clergy into Your Best Recruiters

The most important thing to remember is that the council must serve its members, parish and diocese for it to be trusted and accepted.
