It’s created a lot of heartache and trouble for those leading people. And you’ve got to break the cycle of making leadership lonely. Leadership doesn’t have to be lonely.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees.
