Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

 Importance of vision. Successful and effective leaders provide a clear vision or help followers develop a common vision. Whether developed by the leader alone or with engagement with followers, vision is key to effectively leading change.
 Empowerment and confidence in followers. Visionary leaders empower followers to allow them to act autonomously and independently from the leader. This empowerment engages followers in the change, reducing resistance.
 Flexibility and change. The fast-changing environment requires leaders to develop and encourage flexibility and openness to change in their organization.
 Teamwork and cooperation. Successful leaders emphasize teamwork and, maybe more importantly, the development of shared responsibility, as well as the need for trust and cooperation between leaders and followers and among followers.
