“Heroic Leadership is the book on Jesuit-inspired leadership today.”
—Fr. Kevin O’Brien, S.J, vice president of mission and ministry at Georgetown University and author of The Ignatian Adventure
Best-selling author Chris Lowney, a Jesuit-seminarian-turned-investment-banker, breaks down the four guiding principles of Jesuit formation and how they foster dynamic, effective leadership and achieve longevity.
Lowney’s book provides readers with a deeper understanding of the Jesuit formation that helped shape Pope Francis, as well as how this training may influence our Holy Father’s leadership style.
Heroic Leadership includes:
– The history of the unique formula for molding leaders that have guided the Jesuits for more than 450 years
– An in-depth examination of the four key elements of Jesuit formation: self-awareness, ingenuity, love, and heroism
– Modern-day examples of how successful leaders in today’s culture are best served when these guiding principles are applied
