| Dear Friend of the Leadership Roundtable: |
The Leadership Roundtable exists to promote excellence and best practices in the managment, finances and human resources of the Church. This past year was notable for significant progress and accomplishment across every dimension of our activity.
The publishing of Standards for Excellence: An Ethics and Accountability Code for Catholic Dioceses, Parishes and Nonprofits is a landmark event for our Church and a foundational document for our efforts to highlight sound stewardship and good governance. I encourage you to explore the information below and on our website and to find out how you might become actively involved in our Standards for Excellence program.
Thank you for your support and involvement in our mission.
Wishing you a blessed Advent and a joyful Christmas.
Kerry Robinson
Executive Director
