Donna Ottaviano-Britt

Donna Ottaviano-Britt.

Advisory Board

Donna Ottaviano-Britt is a disciple of Jesus, a loving wife to Joe (her very own St. Joseph), who has coached for 25+ years in multiple environments. She built a breadth and depth of skills and experiences with a global company – serving clients in the US and abroad – before bringing her gifts, talents and expertise to serve the Catholic Church in the Diocese of Camden in 2018. Donna’s areas of expertise are in leadership, coaching, sales, strategic innovation and learning and development.

She is the first director of the Office of Discipleship and Leadership, and is dedicated to exploring, piloting and evolving the many paths of becoming a missionary disciple – so all can live into their baptismal calling. This involves equipping and supporting the co-responsible clergy and laity in their missionary work in the 21^st century.

A critical pathway for discipleship and leadership is creating a culture of affirmation and calling. Donna is creating opportunities for clergy and laity – through coaching – to shine a bright light on the unique and unrepeatable God-given design of each person. These coaching experiences are specifically intended to recognize and celebrate who a person uniquely is. This beautiful gifting remains at the heart of her work in service to the Mystical Body.

In collaboration with key strategic partners, her office has designed, developed and implemented a coaching experience for clergy, the Gifted Leadership Journey. Each priest is provided executive coaching accompaniment to reveal and affirm his uniqueness as a child of God and as a priest of Jesus – uniquely called to the priesthood for his gifts and talents.

Donna is launching a new ‘ministry of accompaniment coaching’ for the laity, so they too can answer their missional calling for which they have been uniquely created. For as St. John Newman said, ‘God has created me to do Him some definite service. He has committed some work to me which He has not committed to another.’

Director of Membership & Engagement

About Stephanie S. Brown and FWD Coaching & Consulting

Stephanie S. Brown is a daughter of God, called to reflect His light by helping others discover who He created them to be. She brings her whole self—faith, purpose, and joy—into her work. A deacon’s wife, mother of three blessings, and “MiMi” to three more, Stephanie is a Catholic coach, mentor, and founder of FWD Coaching & Consulting. What began as a profession has become a ministry rooted in truth, transformation, and the love of Christ.

Through FWD Coaching & Consulting, Stephanie’s mission is clear: to help people move forward in faith, work, and purpose. She walks alongside leaders, coaches, and professionals as they discern God’s call in their lives and step into it with confidence and clarity. Whether navigating career transitions or leadership challenges, her approach is grounded in the belief that true growth comes from knowing one’s identity in Christ.

Stephanie draws deep inspiration from the witness of Servant of God Sister Thea Bowman, whose radiant faith and bold voice encouraged others to live with dignity, joy, and purpose. Like Sister Thea, Stephanie seeks to be a joyful voice in the world—inviting others to stand tall in their identity as beloved children of God. She lives by Sister Thea’s call to “walk, talk, and live with Jesus,” and brings that spirit into every coaching conversation and consulting engagement.

Following a rewarding career in federal service—including roles as Chief Learning Officer and senior HR leader—Stephanie answered the call to merge her faith and her work fully. Her work is now a sacred space where the Holy Spirit leads, transformation occurs, and leaders rise—not only in skill, but in soul.

For Stephanie, coaching is a ministry of accompaniment. Just as she was mentored with patience and prayer, she now walks beside others as they grow into the fullness of their God-given potential. She believes, as Sister Thea did, that our stories, struggles, and gifts are meant to be shared—for healing, for unity, and for the building up of the Body of Christ.

This is not just her work. It is her joyful “Yes” to God.

Patrick Molyneaux

Advisory Board

Patrick (Pat) Molyneaux is a devoted husband to Andrea and father to Therese. He is co-owner of Molyneaux Tile Carpet Wood, a chain of flooring stores in Western PA. Over the past 30 years Molyneaux has grown from $2 million in revenue to nearly $30 million. Pat’s Christifideles Laici inspired vision is to help renew the temporal order by bringing beauty and joy to all that Molyneaux touches.

He is a cofounder and catalyst for several ministries and lay apostolates. One of Pat’s callings is helping Catholic CEO’s live out their Catholic faith in the marketplace. Responding to this call, in 2010 Patrick and Andrea founded the Pittsburgh Chapter of Legatus, an organization that helps Catholic CEO’s learn and live their faith.

In 2015 Pat was inspired by the writings of St. John Paul II in Pastores Dabo Vobis section 43 on Human Formation and started helping Catholic pastors and their lay leaders improve leadership and team effectiveness in context of Human Formation. In 2017, Pat teamed up with Craig Cozza to create the Human Formation Coalition (HFC), an ecumenical 501c3 that awakens a robust understanding of the integration of all four pillars of formation (Human, Spiritual, Intellectual, Pastoral-Vocational) within leadership development contexts, but with a special emphasis on Human Formation.

Since 2017 HFC has catalyzed Human Formation coaching and learning opportunities for hundreds of clergy and thousands of lay leaders globally. Furthermore, HFC has trained hundreds of Human Formation coaches globally. In 2020 HFC launched Leadership Circles for faith-based leaders to come together and discover a leadership vision that is aligned with their unique Ephesians 2:10 workmanship/vocational callings. Beginning in 2021 Pat has more actively catalyzed Christian leaders to cultivate personal vocation inside their organizations which (in collaboration with others) included a Leadership Retreat for the Franciscan University President’s Council. In 2022 Pat was inducted into the Leadership Institute Advisory Board for Franciscan University.
