Hear about what makes CLI's approach unique, the impact it's had on the church, and Dan's personal story of discipleship and following Jesus. More on CLI at https://www.catholicleaders.org.
Prior to his election as CEO, Dan served as Senior Vice President for Catholic Leadership Institute, working as the primary liaison with bishops and overseeing the apostolate’s marketing and services. Dan is a sought-after advisor, consultant, and presenter for the Church, playing a lead role in projects in the Archdioceses of Miami and Boston as well as the Diocese of Pittsburgh and at the North American College.
Dan oversees research associated with Catholic Leadership Institute's Disciple Maker Index, a parish survey tool that seeks to help pastors and pastoral leaders focus their efforts toward evangelization. In just five short years, the Disciple Maker Index has reached over 400 parishes and 100,000 Catholics. Working with this incredible data and more than 25 years of field experience, Dan and the team have recently embarked on an ambitious plan to define what the Next Generation Parish looks like in the next 10 years.
Dan and his wife Tricia are the proud parents of four children and live in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.
