Yes, it takes more time and attention, and the benefit to the organization when results are achieved is well worth it to the conscious change leader. We will discuss the process of getting a leader’s attention and ten key responsibilities of an effective sponsor of transformational change. Come discover how you can initiate this development in your leaders and reap the benefits for change results.   To watch the full video version of this podcast, please visit AskDrChange.com   Hosted by Ausha.
