Leadership Roundtable inaugurated the Monan Medal of Catholic Philanthropy to inspire a culture of giving that promotes excellence in Church management and leadership. We recognize outstanding Catholic philanthropists who exemplify the legacy of the former president of Boston College, Fr. J. Donald Monan, SJ.  Fr. Monan’s life was a living testimony to how best practices, implemented in collaboration between clergy and laity, can transform a Catholic institution to bring excellence to management and mission.

Leadership Roundtable identifies Catholic organizations and institutions that strive to implement best practices in their management, finances, or human resource development. At its annual meeting, Leadership Roundtable recognizes examples of such organizations and presents them with Leadership Roundtable Best Practices Award.
