Summary In the year since his election, Pope Francis has achieved the remarkable: breathed life into an aging institution, reinvigorated a global base, and created real hope for the future. How did a man who spent his life laboring in slums far from the Vatican manage to do this and so quickly? The answer lies in his humility-- and the simple principles that spring from it. Krames explores 12 of these principles and shows how leaders and managers can adapt them for the workplace with equally impressive results.
