Holy See spokesman honoured with ‘Communicator of the Year’ by Allianz Group


19 April, 2013 - Fr. Federico Lombardi, the director of the Holy See as well as the Director general of Vatican Radio was honoured on Thursday by the German multinational financial services company Allianz Group, as the ‘Communicator of the Year.” The group with a staff of 150 thousand serving over 76 million clients in more than 70 countries honoured the Jesuit priest among other things for representing “the key to understanding and interpreting the Holy See with great refinement and experience, without seeking to make himself the protagonist.” A certificate presented to the Vatican spokesman explained that Fr. Lombardi has always been “at the service of information, from both the side of the one who has it as well as that of the one who seeks it, and always exudes the tranquillity of one who had command over words and truth with style and humility, vision and responsibility.” Allianz described him as “a master of understatement, capable of dissolving tensions with simplicity and listening … expressing in every moment the tranquillity of one who has command over words and truth with style and humility, vision and responsibility.”
