Humility. In our rough-and-tumble, take-no-prisoners leadership culture, this quiet virtue is often seen as a weakness. But humility has shaped some of our greatest and boldest presidents, from George Washington to Ronald Reagan. And now more than ever, we need leaders across America who understand the paradoxical power of humility. On a practical level, humility helps a leader learn from mistakes and shortcomings, to earn trust from and unite those they lead, and pursue causes greater than their own success. Humility is also the missing ingredient needed to diffuse our political gridlock, and it's a must-have trait in our next president. A lot of ideas exist about how to bridge our nation's political chasm and fill our leadership vacuum-vote out one party, vote in another, change the leadership in Washington. But what we need most are changed leaders in Washington and across the nation. Leaders who are humble rather than prideful. Leaders who unite rather than ignite. Leaders who care more about the cause than the applause. Humble for President is the manifesto of a non-partisan, grassroots movement of people calling on this nation's next president-and all presidents of companies and the people they lead for that matter-to adopt a new spirit of humility: an unvarnished virtue that has the potential to transform not only our politics but our everyday lives and the leadership culture of this nation.
