1- Introduction
This project summarizes the concept of transforming leaders, which Transforming leadership mean a process in which "leaders and followers help each other to advance to a higher level of morale and motivation". If we trying to move into a new leadership position, we must correctly diagnose the situation we’ll be facing in that new role, we risk over relying on strategies that worked for us in the past, but those approaches won’t necessarily work in new environments, so Michael Watkins developed the STARS model. To succeed in your new role, Michael Watkins recommends these steps: First (Diagnose the situation) Are you leading a startup, A turnaround, accelerated Growth, realignments, or sustaining success. Second (Select the right organizational strategies) For instance, turnarounds require faster (time pressure), riskier changes than realignments like painful cut and call for technical learning (strategies, markets, technologies). Realignments are slow and focus on cultural and political learning. Third (Adopt the right leadership style) For example, in turnarounds, people are hungry for hope, vision, and direction. You’ll need a heroic style charging against the enemy, sword flashing. Realignments require stewardship: diplomatic building of consensus around the need for change.
