The four-component case scenario (text cases A, B, C, and video case D) exemplifies the important concepts and lessons about the leading adaptive change on the condition of some extra-musical initiatives of Berlin-based and world-renowned conductor and pianist Daniel Barenboim.
The case illustrates the challenges associated with resistance to adaptive change, understanding of stakeholders, management of conflicts, and the psychological challenges of leading unpopular, although important, change attempts under the conditions of pressure from various affected parties, who knowingly or unconsciously attempt to divert the change-oriented leader from pushing forward. The case serves as productive ground for exploration of the theory of adaptive change (as put forward by Heifetz and Linsky), discussion of the dangers of leading, and psychological challenges of leading.
