class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"margin-bottom: 26px; text-align: justify; color: #505050; font-family: 'Titillium Web', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Having a vision for change is not enough, understanding the change process and providing effective leadership for its successful accomplishment is key. Leading transformation, especially in large organisations, involves appropriate negotiation, building consensus, analysing complex and ambiguous situations, thinking innovatively and communicating effectively.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 26px; text-align: justify; color: #505050; font-family: 'Titillium Web', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">People often think of the armed forces as rigid, highly regimented and hierarchical organisations. However, in the military, as in any other organisation, giving the order might be the easiest part; execution is the real game! The hierarchy starts with the leader who provides the vision, wisdom and motivation. Leadership means forming a team and working towards common objectives that are tied to time, metrics and resources.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 26px; text-align: justify; color: #505050; font-family: 'Titillium Web', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">According to Senator Ike Nwachukwu, \u201cLeadership is also about engagement. As a retired Military General, I can challenge the misconception that military is all about authoritarianism and dictatorship and not about consultation and engagement\u201d. He further explained that \u201cLeadership is about setting clear direction, knowing how to use the resources \u2013 human and material, available to you and employing the right people that can successfully articulate, cascade and deliver the vision.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 26px; text-align: justify; color: #505050; font-family: 'Titillium Web', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">According to him, gone are the days when leaders stay in mansions behind the lines and dictated impossible orders to troops on the battlefield. He said a successful military strategy works on a combination of careful briefing to establish a clear understanding of the mission objectives and then a delegation of responsibility right down the chain of command.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 26px; text-align: justify; color: #505050; font-family: 'Titillium Web', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">In the military, the leader combines the different aspects of command to inform a strategic option. The leader then makes informed decision and gives the execution order. Supporting commander, commanders of units and battalions will then align with the common purpose, vision, strategy, and direction, regardless of individual views about the strategy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 26px; text-align: justify; color: #505050; font-family: 'Titillium Web', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">The purpose of the commander and the staff is to do the planning and then motivate the execution. To successfully deliver a mission, there must be a good alignment between leadership ability, delivery capabilities and engagement with the team. Leadership must be inclusive but firm! The moment the order is given; the commanding General must be strong enough to ensure that the order is executed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 26px; text-align: justify; color: #505050; font-family: 'Titillium Web', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Managing expectation is another critical factor in leading successful change. This involves a change\u2013leader seeking out and building effective communication bridges to all stakeholders, and then using those bridges to understand and to help the constituents understand their roles in the change process. This goes beyond the simple perspective of communicating the vision, to a complex system of consistent and conscientious communication that evolves as the change initiative progresses\u201d.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4f78966 elementor-widget elementor-widget-stm_post_comments\" data-id=\"4f78966\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"stm_post_comments.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t    <div class=\"stm_post_comments consulting_elementor_post_comments\">\n            <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-62ea899 elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone\" data-id=\"62ea899\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-29f168a third_bg_color elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"29f168a\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-925b9bc\" data-id=\"925b9bc\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7eb56b8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-vc_cta\" data-id=\"7eb56b8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"vc_cta.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"ce_cta ce_cta_a516798601dcdfa7ce99154103e0eb80 ce_text_left third_bg_color add_button_right btn_align_right btn_button_block_true btn_has_icon btn_has_icon_on_the_right\" id=\"\">\n\t<div class=\"ce_cta__content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"ce_cta__content__header\">\n\t\t\t<h2  class='ce_cta__content__title '>Looking for a First-Class Business Plan Consultant?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"ce_cta__action\">\n\t\t<a\n\t\t\thref=\"#\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\ttarget=\"_self\"\n\t\t\tclass=\"button\n\t\t\t\t\t\">\n\t\t\t<span>get a quote<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"fa fa-chevron-right\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The effort vastly improved the company\u2019s planning and execution functions, created and implemented a new stock policy that accounted for specific SKUs and key variables, streamlined the order preparation process and reduced distribution transport times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8085,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20,1],"tags":[27,31,36],"class_list":["post-740","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-franchising","category-uncategorized","tag-consulting","tag-market","tag-planning"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/740","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=740"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/740\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8099,"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/740\/revisions\/8099"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8085"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=740"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=740"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tlfirst.com\/executiveeducation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=740"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
