Leading in Times of Change

Personal maturity: the key to leadership

Managers need more than professional expertise – they need personal maturity in order to consciously assume responsibility and meet the demands of the modern working world.

Alignment vs. autonomy: the right balance

Leadership does not mean prescribing solutions, but empowering employees to be independent while maintaining common goals and values.

Successfully Shaping Change

Sell the problem, not the solution

Before you present solutions, understand the underlying problem. Only when the problem is clear to everyone will the need for change be accepted.

It’s okay not to be okay

Feelings like fear or confusion are part of the process. Acknowledge them – discomfort is part of the process.

Find followers

Change is easier in a team. Find fellow campaigners who share your vision and inspire others.

Where do we want to change to?

A clear vision provides orientation. A common goal motivates us to actively shape change.

Be the change you want to see

Managers should exemplify change and show through their actions what the new reality can look like.

Acceptance is the key

People go through emotional phases. Guide them through these until the change is accepted.

Try it out and adapt

Change is a flexible process. Mistakes are part of it – learn from them and constantly improve your path.

Establishing change – Creating rituals

New habits take time. Rituals help to anchor new behaviours permanently .
