Change is both inevitable and necessary for a team or organization to grow and evolve, but creating healthy, sustainable and effective change is complicated and often a challenge in today’s workplace. Being a leader who affects true change takes a great amount of preparation, skill-building, and support for one’s overall health and well-being.
