Last year he was first on the list of Fortune Magazine’s 50 Greatest World Leaders. This year, in its second published list, he is still there as number four of the “extraordinary men and women who are transforming business, government, philanthropy, and so much more,” according to Fortune.
Fortune said that Pope Francis “has been shaking up the management of one of the world’s largest bureaucracies: the Roman Catholic Church,” and then added “his vision, fortitude, and commitment to reform were so extraordinary in 2014 that we’re including him again this year.”
“It is not just that he has led by example…” but it is “how decisive he is in personnel choices, replacing the boards of the Vatican Bank and its main regulatory body with highly respected business-people from around the globe.”
Since his election, Francis has made the cover of Time and Rolling Stone magazine, among others.
“Number one on this year’s list is Apple CEO Tim Cook chosen for his strong leadership after the death of Steve Jobs. Number two is European Central Bank President Mario Draghi and third is Chinese President Xi Jinping.
“Others to make the list are the Prime Minister of India, Bill and Melinda Gates, the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, pop singer Taylor Swift and Mark Zuckerberg.”
“And all the world wondered…” Revelation 13:3
