Work That Holds
Most large initiatives fail not from lack of effort but from structural conditions that make failure the predictable outcome. Work That Holds is a publication for senior leaders who want an honest read on why that happens and what it actually takes to build something that holds.
The Series
- The Five Breakpoints Leaders Miss in Transformation
The five predictable failure patterns that derail large-scale change, and why they are almost always visible before they become costly.
- The Stewardship Gap
Why leaders who understand change conceptually still fail to produce it, and what separates intent from structural ownership.
- Designed to Stall
The organizational design decisions that make failure the path of least resistance, and how to recognize them before they are built in.
- Built for Constraints You No Longer Face
How organizations optimize for yesterday's problems and what it takes to redesign around the constraint set that actually exists.
- Before It Breaks
Seven disciplines for leaders who want to build something that holds, applied before the launch, not after the stall.
