The challenge of changing how we think
Leadership is always about the conversations we have with others. The words we use, the stories we tell, the topics we discuss, the ideas we challenge - these are the ways we lead. Let's never forget that. Every conversation we have provides a leadership opportunity. Leadership is not necessarily about followers but how the listeners hear what we say. Thus each conversation we have, each story we tell, each relationship we have offers an opportunity for us to "re-think."

I agree, but I would also add that some of the most powerful things connected to change are the things we don't say. In one of the links i followed it was telling a story of Remember the Titans and it highlighted that attitude is leadership. Words are words, but if not mirrored by actions of congruence, hmmmmm.
