Minpunten
-Senior leadership often prioritizes public image and optics over genuine execution, which can lead to misaligned priorities.
-Decision-making can feel top-down with limited space for alternative viewpoints or constructive feedback.
-Internal culture leans political, and favoritism can influence opportunities and workload distribution.
-Staff turnover is high, with vacated roles sometimes left unfilled, creating heavier workloads for remaining team members.
-Targets and forecasts can be overly optimistic, leading to pressure on staff when actual results fall short.
-Certain senior leaders enter with a “know-it-all” mindset, focusing on finding faults in other departments’ work rather than collaborating to improve outcomes.
-Leadership discussions can sometimes feel one-sided, with a small inner circle reinforcing each other’s criticisms instead of seeking balanced perspectives
-Cross-team collaboration is sometimes hindered by finger-pointing, gossip, and lack of consistent conflict resolution, which erodes trust between teams.
-Office politics at the senior level can lead to strategic moves that push out experienced leaders, creating instability and loss of institutional knowledge.
