• Partnering Programs for Organizations - CMI is committed to partnering with Mission Organizations to provide high-quality coaching to missionaries and frontline leaders when and where it it needed most. CMI can provide both external coaching by our own CMI Coaches as well as a variety of training formats to help  you develop your own internal coaches.  
   
  • Bridges Program - Individual missionary clients are referred to CMI for coaching; clients pay an enrollment fee and annual maintenance fee to CMI, and a coaching fee per session to their CMI coach. Bridges can be an entry point for interested missionaries to begin receiving coaching and eventually introduce it to their organizations/teams.
  • Upholding Program - Organizations/groups contract with CMI for coaching for the group members. Coaching can be individual - over phone or Skype - or through team coaching events done on-site. CMI coaches are oriented to your organization and organization members receive a group orientation to coaching values and process.
  • Builders Program - Organizations contract with CMI for coaching of group members PLUS practical introductory training to build coaching skills for supervisors, team leaders and managers. The Builders program is designed to increase the capacity of the organization; objectives are customized for each component. Coaches are oriented to the organization and group orientations for new coachees are held as needed
  • Paradigm Program - Paradigm Programs are individually tailored to your organization over a 3-5 year period with the goal of transitioning to a coaching paradigm at all levels. Programs are developed in partnership with a core team from within your organization. Needs are assessed and goals developed by the core team in concert with a CMI project director and a plan created cooperatively to meet your organization's specific needs and objectives.
