The Catholic Book Club on Goodreads is reading House of Brede, by Rumer Godden. We were discussing leadership and its burdens and one of the pitfalls is "stone disease." No, we're not talking about kidney or gall stones. Stone disease is an excessive fascination with building projects. There are leaders who have to leave a legacy behind (in the shape of a building), wherever they go.
Leaders have to be very careful that this desire doesn't overshadow the governance of their other duties.
