There is the patriarch and then there's the ecumenical patriarch. There are many partiarchs for each nationality of Orthodoxy and the ecumenical patriarch is the head of all Orthodox. He is not, though, like the Pope. The ecumenical patriarch is the "first among equals" and is by no means infallible.
