Abstract

There are important emotional components to leading adaptive change. When you move people from a familiar place to a less familiar place, you operate on their emotions in addition to their heads. To connect with them authentically and powerfully, you must come from that place in yourself as well. This chapter identifies five major constraints that can hold you back from summoning the courage it takes to lead and offers ideas for overcoming them. This chapter is excerpted from ‘The Practice of Adaptive Leadership: Tools and Tactics for Changing Your Organization and the World'.
