Applying the Social Change Model

I believe that this video, and the song itself, represents Collaboration as well as the embracing of a sense of Community at a global level. After the natural disaster that occurred in Haiti, many different music artists came together to produce this song to send the message that we are all in this together and we can all work toward the common good of everyone, not just a particular group, race, gender, or nation. I really think that this song is a clear example of inflicting positive change at such a higher level than any one person could accomplish

The next image that I have included goes hand in hand with my post in our discussion forum for this week. I believe that an excellent metaphor for applying the Social Change Model of Leadership to inflict positive change is the idea of tributaries, or many rivers flowing together into the ocean or one large body of water. This represents the many unique and individual perspectives that the many members of any team possess and how these perspectives all must come together to work toward a common goal.
