Synopsis
Institutions rarely collapse from a single dramatic mistake. More often, performance erodes quietly when governance intent, operating design, and day-to-day execution drift apart. Leaders see healthy dashboards while handoffs weaken, accountability blurs, and decisions accumulate without owners. This contributor feature in International Business Journal examines that failure mode and the conditions that make institutional performance durable across leadership change.
