An engaging style is the most effective in dealing with change and is essential
to leading through a changing environment. One who engages change finds him/herself
excited by the change and proactively moves toward it. The notion of engagement
suggests both an emotional pattern and a behavioral pattern that sees in change
opportunities for growth and for ministry.
However, an Engaging style does not mean that every change effort that comes along
is engaged. Rather, it suggests a person who when presented with a change initiative
(and often, this person is the initiator) assesses its likely positive and negative
impacts on the larger mission of the organization. Based upon that assessment, if
the change supports a necessary direction in light of the mission of the organization
and its core values, he/she will lead in engaging the initiative. |
