Abstract
IN A PREVIOUS COLUMN, we talked about the importance of effective leadership execution and the ability to get results. It is likely that we have all worked with leaders at some point in our past who are charismatic, articulate, and inspire others with their vision of a desired future. They can influence others to look at situations differently and thus feel motivated to change the status quo. However, when it comes to actually obtaining the desired results, somehow it never happens. There are results, but the results are not the ones intended and may even be negative consequences. For example, the leader has done a good job of getting everyone in the department fired up about the upcoming change initiative. There are high hopes about the possibilities of change. However, the project is handled poorly and fails in execution. Staff members are left feeling demoralized and leery of any future change initiatives, unwilling to volunteer or get on board in even the smallest of projects.
