From the Publisher
Offers a profile of what a successful priest needs to know and be able to do. It outlines nine major areas of ministerial concern - the duties - and enumerates several tasks within each performance area. Four levels of competency are described for each task, with accompanying descriptions, laid out in a chart format. An excellent guide for priests to use in self-assessment and professional growth plans.
