Leadership derailment largely depends upon two factors:
- The perceptions of others about your performance which includes your relationship with them, and
- Your contributions or results produced for the good of the organization
The first of the two is the most critical in terms of leadership derailment because a leader may have produced outstanding results, but if he/she has damaged relationships along the way, or has operated with a lack of integrity, derailment may be inevitable.
Some of the universal factors of leadership derailment are
- Erosion or betrayal of trust
- Failure to deliver and be accountable
- Failure to adapt
- Lack of courage and decisiveness
- Creating or endorsing a dysfunctional work environment
- Failure to develop people and organization
- Lacks forward-looking and inspirational approach
- Lack of objectivity and broad-mindedness
