Former UN Peacekeeper Shares How Business Leaders Can Harness Humility to Unlock Leadership’s Winning Edge In A Complex World

SEATTLE, March 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Amplify Publishing released their latest title: Radical Humility: Be a Badass Leader and a Good Human by UN peacekeeping commander and leadership expert Urs Koenig. The book presents a new way of thinking about leadership and power that centers humility, rather than heroics. It is available now via Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and more.

When Koenig signed up to be a NATO peacekeeping commander and United Nations peacekeeper in his fifties, he thought he knew a thing or two about leadership. Instead, he discovered a leadership trait that, though consistently overlooked and underrated, was actually the path to success in the face of today’s problems: Radical Humility.

Deeply researched, Koenig’s framework replaces the top down leadership of the past with a human-centered approach that views humility as the key to achieving goals in an increasingly complex world.

“The old ways of leading do not reflect new realities and are failing to inspire new generations,” says Koenig. “Practicing Radical Humility helps you build deep engagement while at the same time delivering stellar bottom-line business results.”

Radical Humility has received praise from experts in the field of leadership, including:

• “Radical Humility is a game-changing book that redefines leadership in the modern world.” —Dr. Marshall Goldsmith, Thinkers50 #1 Executive Coach and New York Times bestselling author of The Earned Life, Triggers, and What Got You Here Won’t Get You There
