Here, from the staff of the Parish Evaluation Project (PEP), is a helpful resource for pastors, staff and lay leaders filled with reproducible worksheets, checklists, case studies and insights for making that next staff session, council meeting, commission night or parish assembly an effective experience. These exercises have been used successfully with a wide variety of parishes and pastoral groups in connection with the Parish Evaluation Project. Topics include planning, leadership, management, collaboration, decision-making, conflict and stress management, and evaluation tools.
