Leaders are not exempt from the impact of so much change. If your leaders’ approaches toward work haven’t changed significantly in recent months or even years, it’s likely they’re not actually leading.

• Focus on getting things done with and through other people
• Connect with your direct reports
• Give feedback wisely
• Always be learning
• Lead through ambiguity and change
• Manage your energy
