<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>How did a man who spent his life laboring in slums far from the Vatican manage to become known as one of the world's greatest leaders?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In the years since his election to the highest position in the Catholic Church, Pope Francis has breathed life into an aging institution, reinvigorated a global base, and created real hope for the future. His early accomplishments have been so remarkable that in 2014, Fortune magazine awarded the top spot of their coveted World's Greatest Leaders list not to a captain of industry or political leader but to the new pontiff. But how did a relatively unknown priest from Argentina rise so quickly from obscurity to one of the top leaders of the twenty-first century?The answer lies in his humility, as well as the simple principles that have sprung from it. Lead with Humility explores 12 of these principles and shows how other leaders and managers across a broad spectrum can adapt them for the workplace with just as impressive results as our great pope has. These invaluable principles include: - Don't stand over your employees--sit down with them- Don't judge--assess- Take care of people, not lobbies- Go where you are needed- Temper ideology with pragmatism- Don't change--reinvent! - And more Even just a few years in, it is clear to all that Pope Francis's ability to inspire the world is unprecedented in modern times. Lead with Humility reveals the power of his methods, and helps anyone lead with the humility, grace, and authenticity that has elevated the pope to where he is today and had a direct impact in inspiring everyone and everything around him.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>When Fortune announced its 2014 list of the World's Greatest Leaders, the top spot was awarded not to a political figure or a captain of industry, but to the new pontiff, a man who spent much of his life working in the slums of Buenos Aires. </p> Pope Francis earned that accolade and many more because in just a year he achieved the remarkable: breathed life into an aging institu-tion, reinvigorated a global base, refocused attention on core values, and created a new image for the most visible leadership position on Earth. </p> How did he manage this?
