LEADERSHIP
Merriam Definition
Catholic View

The Catholic church views leadership as a calling or charism whereby leadership is a gift to serve God and
humanity, and not for personal gain. The Catholic perspective on intelligent leadership is that it involves
treating employees equally and serving everyone, while collaborating with others for a common good.
