As you review the reading materials for this week, contemplate the following:

• Reflect on the different characteristics of an effective vision of change. Why is each characteristic important? Do you consider some more important than others? Why?
• Which characteristics do you think would be the most difficult to integrate into your vision?

Your main discussion posting for this week should be based on your readings and research this week that addresses the following:

• When creating a change vision, how can you ensure that you are describing the valid change and not just romanticizing the possibilities of change? How will you communicate the validity of the change you envision?
• Select one or more of the key elements of a change vision as described in this week's readings. How could failing to address this element alter the overall effectiveness of the change vision?

*****Please ensure that you are able to post with citations from at least two (2) Academic Journal Articles*****.
