ORGL 518: Transformational Leadership
Dr. Mary Stover
I think we are all storytellers at heart. I believe that so much that I my work is centered around giving people the tools and the opportunity to share their stories. The more I open myself to hearing those stories, the more I become more open to other ways of seeing, to being transformed.
My artifact, my Transforming Leader paper, is a story in itself, showing how transforming leadership can provide context and clarity for the real work of a community, organization, or business.
“Poetry and drama, as do all art forms, draw upon symbols to express what is most true about people’s lives… Often readers and audiences must struggle to bring together the literal and conceptual meanings, but when they are bridged, the result is enlightenment and transformation. Such transformation is the object of art.”
