Appreciative Way Network^tm

The Clergy Leadership Institute started the Appreciative Way Network^tm with three primary goals:

• To provide a network of trained coaches to be resources to clergy, congregations and those who seek to offer their talents in a manner that is congruent with their spiritual values in settings outside of the Church.
• To provide shared resources for coaches who are more interested in coaching than they are in creating brochures, websites, and other marketing resources.
• To provide a virtual community for like minded coaches, from around the world, who find it beneficial to offer and receive support and encouragement as they pursue excellence in the coaching services they provide.
