Adaptive problems cannot be solved using currently existing resources or ways of thinking.⢠It can be difficult reaching a common definition of what the problem really is. ⢠Adaptive problems can only be solved by changing the system itself. ⢠Adaptive problems, which involve peopleâs values, require adaptive leadership forsolutions. ⢠Team-building interventions, at the team level, may help members understand why they struggleto achieve team objectives but are unlikely to remove the root causes of team problems. ⢠Many organizations make top-down efforts to correct team-building problems. ⢠Other organizations are committed to teamwork and are willing to change structures andsystems to support it but are not committed to the âbottom-upâ work that is required. ⢠Delegation takes leaders too much time in the short run, although it saves time in the long run. ⢠Delegation is risky because it reduces the leaderâs direct control over work that will beevaluated. ⢠Leaders fear the job will not be done properly. ⢠Leaders may resist delegating tasks that are a source of power or prestige.
