Abstract
Leadership is essential for transformation, whether in the community or organization. Christian principles and teachings bring about different ethical principles that influence different aspects of life, including leadership. The catholic church in particular, has had a strong impact in leadership globally. This article describes the catholic perspective on intelligent leadership, emphasizing on the values that define intelligent leadership like dignity, justice and collaboration for a common good. The purpose of this paper is to define intelligent leadership and explore the relationship between leadership as a vocation in Catholics and employee-oriented leadership.
