Disruptive forces create the need for change. The window of opportunity during these inflection points may only be open for a brief moment in time or could have a longer realization horizon. The signature of some inflection points is easier to recognize than others. However, many leaders fail to seize the opportunity as the potential to create value. The Adaptive Executive’s Agenda by Level 5 Adaptive instills a rigor for continuous discovery and recognition of value creation opportunities. Typical inflection point indicators include:
- Newly hired or promoted leader
- Degradation or lack of improvement in key performance indicators
- Average or underperforming relative to peer group
- Lack of new product vitality or innovation
- Sudden changes in market dynamics
The Level 5 Adaptive model for value creation involves discovering unmet needs and concurrently building capabilities to address these needs while reducing constraints that impede/limit value creation. Level 5 Adaptive offers a toolkit to assist leaders/organizations to successfully navigate key inflection points including LINKS2™ Capabilities assessment and Adaptive Leadership Transitions™.
