By Chris Lowney

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.
