Leading Change with Vision, Part 2

Michelangelo once said "the greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it." This underscores the importance of vision, of aiming high when we are engaged in the work of adaptive leadership. This is the second in a three part series based on John Kotter's model for leading the kind of organizational change that drives performance. Developing a vision for change, communicating that vision in plain language, and removing obstacles are all essential steps for leading the kind of change that can transform an organization.
