CMI’s Impact

“The CMI team knows coaching, they know missions and intercultural issues, and they know God (most importantly). I will recommend this training for cost, comprehensiveness, and competency to anyone who is in missions or ministry or simply wants to use coaching in their personal or professional lives. It is a life skill that is universally helpful and applicable.”
CMI Trainee

“I’ve been a missionary for about 20 years and as someone who is always giving out and sharing and having to give advice, it was very refreshing to come into coaching and have somebody who would coach me. Someone who would be there for me, someone who would listen, and when I say listen, I mean really listen. Intently. And ask powerful questions.”
