Constantly “Fighting Fires”

instead of proactive
leadership

identified and resolved
at the root

distract leaders from
seeing the bigger picture
and making strategic

Processes Causing High Costs and
Low Productivity
• Multiple forms and
approvals needed for an
internal decision or
function

an extended period of
time to learn about how
the organisation operates

experience becomes the
most critical employee
