Change Leadership: Vision & Direction

This publication is only available in Dutch

In this third publication ‘Change leadership: Vision & Direction’. Points on the horizon and beckoning perspectives.

One of the leaders indicates that a good vision is more than an ambition, a dot on the horizon. It’s also about a safe direction: how do we get there? That ‘dot’ is important to sketch a clear perspective for the future, a more substantive picture: this is what it could look like. At the same time, the leader is also a kind of guide, someone who shows the way, who takes people in the right direction. “Setting a course” is also a frequently heard description of the leaders. This also clearly indicates that there are constant choices to be made along the way. There are exits, roundabouts, side paths and main paths. According to our leaders, vision development is not an active exercise that you only do at the beginning of a change process and then stick to it tenaciously. Setting direction is an ongoing process in which you, as a leader, take your team along.

You can read more about it in the third part of the series ‘changing leadership’.

Change Leadership

Leading change. Or, change leadership, if you prefer. Is just a matter of the correct approach, right? Of good analysis, decision making and going forward?

‘We have talked to over 60 leaders from a multitude of levels and industries, each bringing a different perspective. The perspective being the leader themselves  facing their challenges head on. This applies to middle managers and team leaders too, who also first need to digest the change. After which they can translate it to their own team. We analysed this input and are publishing it one theme at a time. Later on we also bundle our publications in a book, written from the leaders’ own experiences.”
