Transition & Church Vitality Consulting
Transition and Church Vitality Consulting can take many forms.
Transition Consulting: helping judicatories, dioceses, vestries, and search committees navigate through the transition process from the departure of one spiritual leader until the arrival of the next. Judicatory or Diocesan permission required.
Diocesan Transition Consulting: coaching new Diocesan Transition Ministers (DTM), assisting Diocesan Bishops who have no DTM or need an Interim or Sabbatical DTM.
Church Vitality Consulting: discovering the gifts present in the judicatory, diocese, or congregation, as well as the needs of the community. Then bringing these two together to more fully live into being the Body of Christ in the neighborhood.
Church Vitality Consulting has the possibility of increasing your leadership skills and expanding your self-awareness, while helping you learn how to work in teams, clearly define your purpose, and practice healthy dynamics throughout your judicatory, diocese, or church. I am also available for individual or multiple workshops as a consultant or speaker.
Testimonials
“Debra's coaching style encouraged me to better develop my own leadership and other gifts. She is good at nurturing and holding others up.”
“I learned how to set boundaries and make time for myself, something that was missing in my life and ministry. Debra helped me see myself in a new way, as a real leader who has authentic and spiritual authority.”
“I knew it was time, but I was afraid. ‘What did you love to do that you gave up when you became a parish priest?’ With that one question, Debra helped me realize that not only was it time to retire, but that I had something to look forward to!”
