3) Change-oriented leadership: The leaders behaving change-oriented lead by means of examples and they
set an example with their behaviors. They are role models. They motivate the team by expressing his
trust in the team on every occasion to achieve their goals. The leaders develop strategies with regard to
organization’s vision for the team and authorize the team members to apply the new strategies.
Change-oriented leaders try new approaches, pursue new opportunities, convince the team members
about the changes and guide them to practice the changes. In addition to this, the change-oriented
leaders encourage the team members to learn and contribute to team learning. When considered from
this point of view, change oriented leadership, in itself, shows a parallel approach with transformational
leadership style (Strang, 2004).
