ABSTRACT

By now there should be a clear sense that a myriad of incidents may befall and disrupt a work organization and the individuals within that organization. Further, there may be a variety of reactions from the different individuals. Finally, there are stages (phases) as individuals, as well as the organization, travel the journey to re(dis)covery. In any case, the goal is to facilitate the most positive and productive formation of a self-concept or new identity. The personality of the individual is about to change. The culture of the community, country, or workplace is about to shift. How can it be done in a way that does not cause further distress and more pain and suffering? Perhaps, a new type of leadership is required.
