Sometimes no particular event is needed to trigger a problem. Benign but enduring neglect can breed bad outcomes, such as:
- Low staff morale
- Insensitive or disengaged leadership
- Mediocre performance levels
Specific events can cause lasting trouble when changes are not handled sensibly and sensitively, even when those events are "accepted" as inevitable by an organization and its workers:
- Restructuring
- Budget cuts
- New leadership
- Layoffs
- Closings
- Mergers and acquisitions
- Internal conflicts
