Chris Lowney: Integrating Our Spiritual and Work Lives

  • Summary

  • Throughout his life and career in both corporate and nonprofit settings, Chris Lowney has learned that one of the most important pieces of leadership is avoiding what he calls “split life-ism,” where someone’s spirituality and personal life is left at the door when they enter the work place. “Nobody can live their whole life in a split way,” Chris shares. On this episode of The Catholic Leadership Podcast, Chris Lowney joins us to discuss integrating spirituality and work together, practicing love-driven leadership, and how to handle leadership transitions. Chris shares leadership lessons learned both from his unique life journey through Jesuit seminary, J.P. Morgan, and in his leadership coaching and consulting. About Chris Chris Lowney, a one-time Jesuit seminarian, now chairs the board of CommonSpirit Health, a Catholic hospital system that is the largest nonprofit healthcare system in the USA, with more than 140 hospitals and 150,000 employees. Previously, Chris served as a Managing Director of J.P. Morgan & Co. on three continents. He has authored some half-dozen books, including the bestselling, “Heroic Leadership: Best Practices from a 450-Year-Old Company that Changed the World,” which has been translated into eleven languages. His other award-winning books include “Pope Francis: Why He Leads the Way He Leads” and "Everyone Leads: How to Revitalize the Catholic Church." He also chairs the board of Commonweal magazine. His B.A. and M.A. are from Fordham University, and he holds eleven honorary doctoral degrees (But, Chris adds: "I don't have the intellect to earn one the real way!") He grew up in New York City, hates the New York Yankees, and roots for the New York Mets.
