Why Your Best Leaders Are Struggling

We're living through interconnected breaks across technology, economics, politics, and climate — simultaneously. These aren't separate trends. They're reinforcing shifts that have invalidated the mental models underlying most organizational strategy.

It's not a talent problem. It's a discontinuity problem.

Three traps emerge:

The Expertise Trap — Accumulated knowledge doesn't just fail in discontinuous environments. It actively filters out the signals that matter most.

The Predictability Illusion — Strategic planning assumes the future resembles the past. Your organization keeps building capability for a world that no longer exists.

The Individual Heroism Fallacy — No single leader, no matter how capable, can process the complexity discontinuity demands. The structures built around individual expertise can't generate what's actually needed.
