Thanks for the comment Stephan.  The "change" we talk about in leadership (hence the name "Lead Change") is that leadership is not something you do; it is who you are.  We act like a leader because we are one, not simply because we're in the position of leadership.  It's hypocritical to behave like a leader on the outside; to go through the motions or to play the part because that's what we've been assigned or that's how we think we're supposed to act.  We want to be a leader on the inside (character-based) and that means we exercise leadership on an individual level just as you mentioned above.  Thanks.  Mike...
