Re-Thinking Humility

Today's leaders face unprecedented challenges whether they are leading a government agency, a non-profit or a corporation. A pandemic, evolving technologies, demanding consumers and disagreeing citizens make it more difficult than ever to lead. Instead of looking for new approaches to bringing people together towards a common goal, Re-Thinking Humility offers that we need to get 'back to the basics' with what some refer to as the most important virtue of all. Humility is not just a common element in our greatest leaders, it's essential. And, it's a more nuanced concept that suggests a framework to transform the way we live and lead. Humble leaders step back from the spotlight, put others first, are accurate in assessing their abilities and open themselves to influence by others. Re-Thinking Humility explores the answers to questions such as: What is humility? How might more of it make us better leaders? Who can we look to for examples of humility? What are the consequences of too much of it? How do we develop and nurture this strength?
