Nightmare Before Christmas Pt. 2: How to Approach Change with Humility

Regardless of who you are, we at WonderTour believe that you are a leader. Whether you run your own business, lead a team of problem solvers, serve as mother or father to a family, or are just growing up with big aspirations of making an impact in the world. One of the reasons we need everyone to be leaders is because change is inevitable and good leadership is required to navigate the waters of uncertainty and come out better on the other side. In The Nightmare Before Christmas, Jack Skellington attempts to instigate a monumental shift in his culture from celebrating Halloween to celebrating Christmas, but its Sally, not Jack, who humbly navigates the murky water of change. Sally embodies a true servant leader as she simultaneously supports Jack and the celebration of Christmas, while trying to steer the team towards a growth mindset that acknowledges that don't actually know much about Christmas. How might we learn from Sally how to navigate change in our lives and businesses?
