When Fortune announced its list of the World’s Greatest Leaders, the top spot was awarded not to a captain of industry, but to the new pontiff. How did he manage to breathe new life into the Church so quickly? The answer lies in his humility — and the simple principles that spring from it.

Subtitled 12 Leadership Lessons from Pope Francis, Krames’ book shows how leaders and managers can adapt these lessons for the workplace with equally impressive results. They include: avoid insularity; don’t judge, assess; take care of people, not lobbies; go where you’re needed. Krames helps anyone lead with grace and greater authenticity.
