The cycle of org debt: Bureaucratic and chaotic flavors
Org debt often arises as a result of unmet human needs within an organization. One flavor of org debt is the bureaucratic flavor, where leaders resort to command and control behavior to compensate for a lack of trust and connection. This leads to a permission culture and learned helplessness among team members. The other flavor is the chaotic side, where leaders avoid clarity and decision-making, hindering autonomy and causing an influence culture to emerge. Both flavors of org debt perpetuate a cycle that hampers team performance and creates inefficiency.
