Dare Great Things

Of the many excellent texts on leadership in the Catholic Church’s tradition The Rule of Saint Benedict surely holds a pride of place.  Written around 530 AD by St. Benedict of Nursia this text provided the foundation for the way of life of his monks.  A way of life that shaped many of our traditions in Western Civilization.  This is why his take on leadership is so important.  And he provides us with a valuable lesson in our ongoing series on the lessons of leadership from the saints.
