Catholic Leadership: Lessons from Jesus and a Faithful Centurion

Drawing on his experiences with the NATO forces in Afghanistan, R.D. Miksa has written an illuminating handbook on leadership for people in any type of situation. He offers ten principles of Catholic Leadership, and he illustrates each of these principles with lessons from Jesus and from his own career as a military leader. He explains two styles of leadership that should be adopted depending on the exigency of the situation and the competency of the followers: the active strength of love, and the passive strength of faith. And he provides a self-assessment for people who aspire to be Catholic leaders.
