\u201cLeading change is high stakes, but we don\u2019t spend a great deal of time focusing on conversation and creating space to engage in real conversation."
\nMarsha Acker is the author of \u201cBuild Your Model for Leading Change\u201d and the host of \u201cDefining Moments of Leadership\u201d podcast. In this episode, we discussed building our own model for leadership and leading change. Marsha first started by sharing the concept of a model and some of the common challenges for organizations in making changes. Then we discussed David Kantor\u2019s theories on structural dynamics and functional awareness for understanding behavioral model, which include the concepts of leadership range and communicative competence. Marsha outlined what makes communication so challenging and what we can do to achieve a more effective communication. Towards the end, she shared the three different models that leaders need to think about, i.e. model for leadership, model for living, and model for leading change. \xa0
