How It Works

Each Faith @ Work community is a forum of trust that facilitates interpersonal  connections and meaningful dialogue, building an atmosphere in  which professionals can reframe business as a vocation compatible with faithful living.

Professionals are drawn to Faith @ Work communities by a shared desire to align professional success with personal values. They strive to approach business decisions in ways that reflect their faith and values, and positively impact their organizations on a deeper level. What's more, they want to contribute to a society that serves the human spirit, the local community, and the world at large.

Members are invited to follow a roadmap for conscientious professional and personal growth. Community members strengthen their business sense and sense of purpose, encouraging each other along the way.

Process

Communities take a deliberate and thoughtful approach based on a proven small-group discussion model. The experience is enriched as members bring their own insights to every discussion. This process results in incremental, cumulative personal growth.

Local groups meet each month at locations such as corporate conferences rooms, cafeterias, college campuses, alumni offices, retreat centers, and parish meeting rooms. Effective communities benefit from consistent member participation yet attendance is flexible to allow for the complexity of work and family schedules, business travel, and other obligations.
