The two cornerstones of the term paper are on the one side “Leadership” and on the other side “Change Management”. Leadership is simply the ability to influence others towards joint targets in a way that motivates these others and leads to the desired results. Change Management is rather difficult to describe in one glance. Nonetheless, it is meant to be a process, tool or technique to manage the people side of change in order to achieve a desired outcome cf. (Prosci, no date). What Change Management really depicts is going to be clarified in the course of the term paper.

The following term paper constitutes a critical assessment by the author whether organizational transformations require a well-orchestrated change management program, strong leadership and business acumen. In the following, the outlined theoretical background is going to be applied regarding a case study about the Italian car manufacturer “FIAT”. Thereby, special emphasis will be put on the observed leadership style, underlying complexities and paramount challenges. Ultimately, the last chapter will consist of future recommendations to make the business model more sustainable.
