Leaders Who Successfully Embrace Change | Promote Innovation Edith Onderick-Harvey wrote in Harvard Business Review about five behaviors of leaders who embrace change . We’ve looked at three behaviors so far this week. The fourth behavior is to promote calculated risk taking and experimentation . When confronted with risky opportunities, many leaders tend to ask “Why?” Leaders that handle change well ask, “Why not?” Without the opportunity to take calculated risks and to fail occasionally, innovation will be stifled. God gave man the freedom to make mistakes, even big mistakes. In Genesis 2, God said, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.” To manage change well, give your staff the freedom to innovate and take calculated risks.
