To be effective in change management you must be highly creative and have the ability to see alternate ways of doing things. Remaining open to new ideas and innovations, and exhibiting an agile and flexible manner in the way you work.
Leading change requires a level of autonomy in the leader, the ability to give the team autonomy, and the ability and comfort in making decisions and taking risks. An intuition for change, and the confidence that when things change you can trust in your gut will be highly beneficial when it comes to change management. As with all leadership gaining complete buy-in is the path to success.
