I agree with there being a mix of both compliance and engagement. I don’t think the goal should be to always seek engagement as the epitome of success; rather the blending. This, I think, is far more difficult and lends that bit of ‘art’ versus ‘science’.

I’ve always considered the best visions to be like a painting by numbers ( remember them when you were a kid?). You show people the possibility on the horizon (look at the great view) and you establish the key features (there will be a house and a cow in this painting), then you encourage them to join in the coloring in ( as long as the cow produces milk does it matter what kind or colour?).
Too many leaders want to decide everything down to the blade of grass: just like on your continuum.
Holding the tension within the continuum is what makes successful engagement in change.
