It's when you listen to your people. When you listened to their responses and evidentiary works. And you listen to the call to duty, carefully making a decision that is needed and popular. When you really listen and seek resolution beyond what you feel and beyond what you think. When you can walk in the shoes of your soldier and walk in the shoes of your supporter and honestly connect. When you can make that connection to their necessities and wants and decided decisively where to put your support. You have to transform the outlook on your priorities. You have to think outside the box in perspective of the soldiers. You have to see the loopholes in the situation and explore how to repair the outlook. You have to focus on the possibilities and link them together for resolution. it's not about being crafty. It's not about being deceitful. It's not about popularity alone. It's not about doing what is favorable only to officers but its looking deep down into the crisis. And realizing that something necessary must be done. That this crisis got to be averted or all else will fail. It is building up moral. Strengthening the trust among your soldiers and strengthening the trust among officers and alike. Letting them know that you are loyal to them as they are loyal to you. That you see the bigger picture. That you see the major outcome. And winning over their support with knowledge, intel, and resources. Letting them know that you hear them and that you see them. Letting them know that you are ready, ready to fight for them, ready to defend your cause, and ready at all odds to be the best you can be. You must role model the behavior that you want others to exhibit. You must show your troops how to act and be strong and be brave. You must show them to mediate and find the reason behind their fear and crush that fear with duty, loyalty, and trust. Transformative Leadership is about change. It's about ambition. It's about seeing the present opportunities ahead of you and choosing the best one that is accomplishable. It's about perceiving what your people need and using that perception to outline victory. It's about building bridges and relationships. Building confidence in your people and soldiers by verifying and critically assessing their thoughts and movements. You have to immortalized your troops with thoughts of acclamation. You must reaffirm their faith, hope and trust. You must let them know that they are not alone and that help is on the way. You must guide them to victory and embrace their shortcomings and show them direction. You have to strengthened them to complete the mission and build them up with the directives that must be completed. You have to carefully lead them to victory and mature their thinking where they can easily brainstorm new ideas. It's about detailing the process of victory every step of the way and acknowledging mistakes using them as stepping stones for success. Only be firm when you see major retaliation and major digress from the process and path of victory. That is only time you need to set an example to get the result you seek and alert other soldiers away from repeating those retaliations. Transformative Leadership is actions and details aligning together to produce results. It is putting forth an example of expectations and success using a higher level of thinking throughout the process and trusting the individuals to carry out the mechanisms. It's allowing leadership to be a verb. It's allowing leadership to be an action. Transformative gives the power to those who have the intel and evidence. It's more than trial and error, it is powerful and effective in administering justice and guaranteeing freedom.
