My overarching assessment of the group of five who presented to the entire assembly: unlike any other organization I have worked with in the past ten years, these people ALL possessed the one ingredient that makes the whole presentation process work – passion.

A leader’s roleIn any change project, a leader must wear many hats, however his/her role can be split into two key areas:1. Set the strategic direction of the change and;2.
