Rodney King and Transformation

"Transformational Leadership enhances the motivation, morale, and performance of followers through a variety of mechanisms. These include connecting the follower's sense of identity and self to the project and the collective identity of the organization; being a role model for followers that inspires them and makes them interested; challenging followers to take greater ownership for their work, and understanding the strengths and weaknesses of followers, so the leader can align followers with tasks that enhance their performance." - Wikipedia

South Africa's Rodney King is a warrior of a different sort. Through his incredibly tough and varied background involving solving conflicts with his fists, he's found that polishing minds is a greater mission than cracking heads. I highly, highly, recommend that you listen to these video interviews. Quite a story and quite a transformation. After watching them, go to Rodney's website and enjoy the articles, information and direction. http://www.crazymonkeydefense.com/
