The visit of Pope Francis to America demonstrated enduring, inspirational, and transformational leadership lessons.

These lessons serve as a clarion call to renew individuals, families, communities, and the nation.

There is no one at this present time anywhere on the planet, other than Pope Francis, exemplifying quintessential leadership principles to believers and nonbelievers as well.

The heart of his charismatic ability to transform is a sincere compassion that has humility as its foundation.

The humility of the pope is dramatically expressed through his concern especially to the poor, destitute, and suffering.
