In leadership, we will always naturally want to do what we can be proud of. Hence, both the leader and the people will desire the change they can be proud of. Often, we let ego get in the way: 1.

There are two polar ends of change: 1. Creative and 2. Destructive. And the rate of which depends on whether the intent is to create or to destroy. It is easier to experience change due to destruction than creation. So, a leader, as well as the people, can easily know the polar ends of change they are experiencing by the ease with which it happens.…

The change that comes by transforming the people you are leading takes time and follows a natural course, which should not be compromised because of the urgency to see the result.

Understanding which of the realms you lean towards more to is key to helping you know where you will target change. This bias is shaped by the leaders' personality as some wou…

Two levels of change happens in leadership with time: 1. Things will change. And 2. People will change. So, the leader must decide which level of change should be a priority i.e., changing things or the people. Sustainable change is impossible when things change without people changing, but when you change the people for good, they will end up brin…
