Humility, or holding power loosely for the sake of others, is sorely lacking in today's world. Without it, many people fail to develop their true leadership potential and miss out on genuine fulfillment in their lives and their relationships.
Humilitas: A Lost Key to Life, Love, and Leadership shows how the virtue of humility can turn your strengths into true greatness in all areas of life. Through the lessons of history, business, and the social sciences, author John Dickson shows that humility is not low self-esteem, groveling, or losing our distinct gifts. Instead, humility both recognizes our inherent worth and seeks to use whatever power we have at our disposal on behalf of others. Some of the world's most inspiring and influential players have been people of immense humility. The more we learn about humility, the more we understand how essential it is to a satisfying career and personal life. By embracing this virtue, we will transform for good the unique contributions we each make to the world.

John Dickson is an incredible teacher, Pastor, with an uncanny ability to capture subject matter that most would run from. I will read and listen to this book again throughout the years. I have much to learn on the matter.
Humility is nearly impossible to capture in a book

However, this book is not so great. Probably, its the subject that is so difficult or even inappropriate for anyone to pin down and dissect with any amount of clarity and honesty and John Dickson makes a decent go of it but the book is somehow seriously lacking. Maybe its the many examples of business leaders and their humility that puts me off . I will be honest and admit I do not generally hold business leaders up as wonderful people. John does nicely point out the sea-change event of the appearance of Jesus Christ into a very honour , position and fame based culture and how He changed that , but that is not developed in the book enough. Again, humility is like an elusive magical butterfly. As soon as you realize its in your life it's gone. Our inherent, " Johnny is a bright good little boy " assurances that we all may have grown up with are in conflict with the real call to esteem all others as better than ourselves which is at the deep heart of humility. God knows I have not learned real humility in any deep way yet and this book helps a tad but that's all. Lately, I have been reading alot on cross-cultural Christian missions and see in some very self-sacrificing outreach people deep examples of long lasting commitment to humble service that borders on the outlandishly miraculous. And the weird thing about these people is their consistent sense of humour and some of the very funny situations their service throws them into. They have a joyous time in seemingly terrible circumstances. As examples, "There's a Sheep in My Bathtub" by Brian Hogan and " Through Her Eyes " by Marti Smith. Those books will blow you away with accounts of the humble service of everyday people.
