Skill #1:The most common cause of leadership failure
is treating an adaptive problem with a technical fix.Learn to recognize adaptive work.

Technical Problems vs Adaptive Challenges
Technical• Easy to identify• Often lend themselves to quick,
easy solutions• Can be solved by an authority
or expert• Requires change in just one or a
few places• Either/Or thinking• Solutions can often be
implemented quickly (by edict)
• Example – take lisinopril for your blood pressure
Adaptive• Difficult to identify (easy to deny)• Requires changes in values, beliefs,
roles, and approaches to work• People who have the problem do the
work of solving it• Requires change in numerous places
often crossing organizational boundaries
• Both/And thinking• Solutions require new discoveries, new
skills and can take a long time to implement
• Example - lifestyle change to exercise, eat right and be stress-free

Either/or
One right answerWhen you are right,
those who disagree are wrong!
Both/and
More than one right answer
When you are right, those who disagree may also be right
“Either/or” “Both/and” thinking

Polarities
• In all difficult, wicked or adaptive problems
• Power and truth in both aspects• “AND” is the key• Either taken to extreme alone is
nonsense

Exercising adaptive leadership is
different
Than having formal or informal authority.
-People may occupy positions of authority without ever leading their organizations through difficult but needed adaptive change. "Apres moi le deluge"
-They frequently protect their authority and fail to mobilize their followers so that they: - minimize the losses the followers will need to live with - point at “others” who must do the changing- deny or delay facing what needs to change.
![Page 28: MNDAKSPAN Conference February 28, 2015 Leading in Times of Change.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032517/56649cb05503460f949749b1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Exercising leadership to do adaptive work means…
Disappointing people’s expectations (that things will stay the same)
at a rate they can tolerate.( and not ignore you or try to silence
you or resist in infinitely creative ways )
