Change Leadership from Where You Are

Can people at the top really lead change? Yes and No. You see change leadership is in the details. The subtleties make the difference between failure and success. The change leader has to know the specifics of the change, fully understanding the technology or the delivery mechanism or the market. We can't expect the executive generalist to play this role. We need their support but for real success we need change leader champions stationed at every level within an organization. Please don't wait to graduate to the next corporate level before leading change. You likely won't be more prepared to lead change than you are right now.
