Based on the readings for this week, discuss practical steps that one might take in your organization (or one you are very familiar with) designed to implement Adaptive or Complex Adaptive Leadership as part of the organization’s culture.
Be very specific and use examples that are specific to your organization and can be related directly to the readings for this course.
Below are this week’s readings. I will also attach multiple sources from throughout the course.
