send email Printer Friendly Version
Betting against the law (legally required activities on the back burner)
Operational infrastructure is underdeveloped
Product and/or service quality is declining (customer needs are obscured by growth needs)
Inability to capture key data handicaps decision-making
The "diligence" in due diligence is missing (hasty acquisitions cause organizational indigestion)
Planning horizon is too short ("images in the mirror are closer than they appear")
Loyalty to employees who "got us here"
Organizational focus is blurred
Management capabilities fit yesterday’s requirements
Sense of invincibility (Titanic syndrome)
