Summary: | Collects twelve lessons in leadership from Pope Francis, that provides readers with a way to become compassionate, authentic, and effective leaders When Fortune announced its list of the World's Greatest Leaders, the top spot was awarded--not to a captain of industry--but to the new pontiff.
