How did Gregory I reform the administration of the papal palace?

St. Gregory the Great reformed the administration of the papal palace by "monasticizing" it. He achieved this by replacing the entrenched clergy who previously occupied the Lateran Palace with monks and trusted clerics.12

This shift reflected Gregory’s own commitment to monasticism, as he continued to live as a monk throughout his papacy. By restructuring the palace staff, he sought to align the church's administration with his focus on justice and charity, famously referring to himself as the "servant of the servants of God". While this reform was central to his governance, it reportedly drew embittered reactions from the displaced clergy.213
