It is not about making wholesale changes in business or in a social venture or in a government. It is a step by step process that is well thought out for its impact and the changes it would bring in people and their actions. Any changes that would not contribute to positive change in status quo should be avoided as they would only create chaos and confusion.
The changes that are being planned are encapsulated in a larger program called Transformation and they could be in adapting best business practices, innovative culture, process automation, increasing people potential, inclusive, becoming more socially relevant and above all feeling pride in what people, organisation or country do.
The leaders driving these changes need to de aware of the change in the behavioural pattern of the people that are part of the exercise. The leaders have to push people towards peak performance without them knowing it or exerting pressure on them. The team needs to be always aligned with the goals and that leads them to give their best without expecting any huge rewards. The impact it has created is itself a reward as they find new motivation, enthusiasm and energy to deliver the results.
History has taught us such transformations have done wonders to great organisations and countries and the leaders that drove these transformations are still revered for their foresight, perseverance, objective and compassionate leadership.
Transformation has to be for the greater good of the society or organisation and not for petty, narrow minded attitude and actions that are disgrace to people leading it and are part of it.
Let us support all such efforts of leaders who thrive for uplifting the society and bring out the pride in what we do.
