RADIO INTERVIEW: Leadership by Accident

Leadership and management are not the same things. At any given point in your life, someone needs you to be a leader. Catholic Review Editor Christopher Gunty talks with Jim Rafferty, a parishioner of St. Joseph Parish in Texas/Cockeysville, about the tragedy that led him to become a “Leader by Accident,” and how that experience and his faith shaped his life. Empathy and solicitude can be key components of becoming a good leader, says Rafferty, who wrote a book, “Leader by Accident: Lessons in Leadership, Loss and Life.”
