People will only change when they want to, so it is still possible to salvage a “lost cause” if you make the people desire to change. Therefore, the leader must be able to inspire. People do not change because their job requires them to, or just because their government demands it; they change because they aspire to a better future. So when you tap into what is important to you, you can achieve just about anything. The nature of man is to resist change when it is being foisted on him and he cannot see how it would benefit him, but he loves change and willingly embraces it when it comes from within him.
