The field of change management has many experts and methodologies. For any change to be successful a transformational leader must be an active participant in the process, create a sense of urgency to be different, be visible, continuously reinforce the vision, and model the behaviors to achieve the desired future state. These leaders bring about changes based upon the dynamic forces that impact both the external and internal environments of an organization, a community, or a society. The goal is to help followers taking part in the change to understand that transformation is a journey. These leaders behave in ways that inspire followers and influence them to take the lead to think differently about what the future holds.

In this week you will examine the strategies that transformational leaders use to bring about these desired changes and the alignment that exists between the leaders and followers if the change is going to produce the desired outcomes.
