We all have moved organizations and teams over our work life. Navigating as a leader in the new organization or department is extremely important to be a transformational leader to build passion, energy and teams that innovate continuously.
 
> Need to invest considerable time and emotional energy in the process to understand the current culture and setup

> Need  a multi-level approach: focus on individual, team and organizational (i.e. culture, strategy) levels

> Exercise influence without relying on formal hierarchy is a valuable skill

> Team Behavior Analysis

> Call out

> Values and mapping the clashes

> Interests and Perspectives

> Collaboration can be enhanced by actively managing conflict

> "How are you feeling at this point about the discussion?"

> Team need to know you care and are aligned to help them grow and be successful to build followership
 
Most important as a leader is to create trust in the team that the new proposed changes with your style and culture shift will evolve and give people time to align. Be human in all the decisions you take and show empathy with the team as they are adjusting to your style. Show that you are a learner for life and everyone of them is important for team to be successful.
