The Human Age symbolizes the start of a new era, the welcoming of a change in energy and how we innovate. It is the beginning of a period of time where leaders express themselves more freely and also reach a deeper connection with their target groups, a more meaningful and natural—in the flow—exchange. Humans as (self) leaders look for a richer and greater perspective (vision) and learn what is means to be human. But what does it mean for leadership communication? Communication is the critical impact factor to help us understand how we can bring forward a new idea, be understood in black-and-forth exchanges with responsive partners, and (co-)create new worlds or transform systems. This chapter presents a new perspective on leadership and main leadership tasks to effectively transform, build and communicate.
