The Power of Humility in Leadership by Franziska Frank

To many people, the words 'leader' and 'humble' are not natural bedfellows. Yet once they have grasped the definition most employees desire a humble leader, while a majority of managers believe they already are one. What appears deceptively simple is trickier than expected.

Dr. Franziska Frank works as visiting lecturer at Germany’s number 1 business school ESMT Berlin. She has been teaching executives worldwide for more than 15 years on all elements of influencing, in particular, on how humility influences others indirectly via acting as a role model.
Franziska was educated at an UK boarding school, read history at Cambridge (BA and MA) and has a top-class law degree plus PhD from Munich University. After working as a management consultant at Boston Consulting Group for six years she joined ESMT Berlin. In 2016 she turned free-lance to have more time to write books, while continuing to support companies in their quest to develop effective leaders for our day and age.

She published the German version of her book on humility with Springer Gabler in 2021 which has been downloaded more than 16,000 times. A new and extended edition is coming out in 2022. An article by her has appeared in the January edition of the German Harvard Business Review https://lnkd.in/ekB4j5xf. She has also been quoted in different German newspapers. She is connected to more than 3.000 managers worldwide on LinkedIn and engages in active discussions with them about humility.
