Behavioural Change Toolkit · Advising Senior Leaders

Executive Failure Modes — Interactive

A leader is undermining their own change and you need to name it in a way that lands

Tick what you are actually seeing. The tool names the failure mode, explains why it produces the outcome you are getting, and gives you the words to raise it.

All eight are well-intentioned

Nobody sets out to undermine their own change. These are the natural output of being time-poor, optimistic, and several layers away from where the work happens — which is exactly why naming them constructively is valuable and naming them accusingly is worse than useless.
