However, the culture establishes the norms and defines how leadership has to work. A leader is the responsible to understand how to create people alignment in different cultures, and to cause damages to cultures that are not working properly, according to Shein (2004). Dickson et al. (2012) outlines that the way leaders are perceived in several cultures can be compared as culture impact in leadership. Those who do something relevant to society, whose distribution of power is hugely stratified, can be in the future imitated for other cultures.
Especially in the workplace where feelings of grief can undermine one’s productivity, organizational change must be dealt with utmost care and with careful deliberation. With that in mind, the first part of the book offers an understanding on the origin and impact of organizational change.
