More Praise for Mother Teresa, CEO

"Numerous articles and books have been written about Mother Teresa the humanitarian. Most of these have been focused on the impact she has had on millions of lives and not on her leadership skills that played an integral role in making her one of the most successful humanitarians of our generation. This book distills her journey into leadership principles that are easy to understand and emulate."
-William H. C. Chang, Chair, Westlake International Group, and owner, DC United and the San Francisco Giants

"Mother Teresa, CEO is an important contribution to the emerging paradigm of 21st-century leadership. Bose and Faust have captured the essence of her leadership success in a compelling read that gives each of us practical ideas for leading our organizations. If success is the scorecard, Mother Teresa's principles are a must-read!"
-William S. Thompson, former CEO, PIMCO

"Who would have thought an Albanian nun, based in the slums of Calcutta, would build one of the most recognized international organizations in the world. How did she do it? Bose and Faust write an inspiring yet practical book demonstrating the simple, profound principles that enabled Mother Teresa to build an organization that continues to do so much good in the world. A must-read for anyone interested in seeing the extraordinary possibilities one person can accomplish with vision, passion, and determination."
-Melanie Schnoll Begun, Managing Director, Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Philanthropic Services

Apply the principles and you and your organization will be on your way to becoming extraordinary."
-Robert White, founder and CEO, Extraordinary People, and author of Living an Extraordinary Life
