The implementation of the information system falls under change management. Leaders play an important role in managing technology-based change within the organization. Leaders can be transactional or transformational. On one hand, a transactional leader is concerned with the compliance of standards and completion of processes from the first stage to the last. Transactional leaders tend to establish and stick to routines. On the other hand, a transformational leader is concerned with dynamics such as relationships, changes or adjustments, and improvements. As such, transformation leaders tend to be keen in recognizing multi-dimensional areas of improvement. (Politis 2004) Since the introduction of an information system constitutes major change in the firm, a transactional leadership behavior better suits company needs.
Effective leadership is significant in corporate communication, which is a core principle of change management. Leaders applying corporate communication should encourage and facilitate communication throughout the different stages of project development (Van Riel 1995; Simonsen 2001). Communication is necessary since not all of personnel belonging to management and personnel have knowledge about the function of information systems. Through communications, the knowledge gap is eased resulting to less apprehensive personnel because of minimized uncertainties. Corporate communication should not only be applied during projects, such as information system development of Dawson’s Automobiles, but also integrated into corporate culture to facilitate better organizational linkages
