What must a leader do to effect meaningful change? In this episode, Jonathan answers the next Unify question and recognises that action cannot wait for perfect certainty. The conversation moves from the first step, to time and mortality, to strategy, identity, and the deeper internal work required for a vision to become part of the leader. Before others can help carry a change, the leader must make room for it in mind, heart, calendar, and life.
