Promoting poor leaders can devastate team productivity and morale, creating a cascade of issues within an organization. From a lack of clear direction and stalled decision-making to fractured collaboration and resource inefficiencies, weak leadership derails progress at every turn. Studies from McKinsey, Stanford, and others highlight the significant impact of ineffective leadership—ranging from wasted effort and missed deadlines to project failures and operational waste. Perhaps most damaging of all, poor leadership extinguishes motivation, leading to disengagement and stifled results. For businesses, the message is clear: strong leadership is not optional—it is the engine driving team performance and organizational success. 

Rich and Maikel continue to uncover the consequences of promoting poor leaders in this episode of Mainline Executive Coaching ACT.
