Leadership Leads Change

When a group needs change, it is difficult to hope for or even manage the change individually amongst all members of a group, especially when the change effects them concurrently. For group change a leader is needed. Someone needs to guide the group, establish the future and even make collective decisions for the group.

This is not without responsibility and in not necessarily the person of the group most eager for the change. Leadership in change implies an understand of the group or activity being changed and the stakeholders and their weakness and strength related to the change and its achievement. The leader must see the collective progress of the group and assist those that 'fall behind'. He/She must also make decisions with consideration of the whole, more in a systems thinking perspective, than her own or individual perspectives.

Similar to individual change were you must lead one, leadership is leading the group as one.
