Transformational Leadership: (Leading Change) – My philosophy with regard to leading change is
relatively simple. It’s not merely a matter ofhaving vision and being able to plan and execute. A factor
which I believe is very important in leading change is to manage anxiety. People are naturally resistant to
change and cling to the familiar. There is an art to causing people to embrace change by enlightening them
to the opportunities such change may provide for their personal growth and advancement,as well as the
improvement ofthe organization.
