Leadership is about recognizing opportunities, inspiring action, transforming outcomes and changing and being changed. Transformational leadership has the unique nature of being exponential and, at the same time, personal. Individual change ripples out to community change and back again in an empowering circle that elevates attitudes as it serves the common good.
