Short-term Effects:
- Chaos and uncertainty due to unexpected leadership vacancies or lack of qualified candidates.
- Loss of institutional knowledge and relationships if a key leader departs without a proper succession plan.

- Difficulty maintaining stability, growth, and competitiveness without a pipeline of qualified talent.
- Hindered innovation and adaptation to market changes, decreasing stakeholders’ confidence in your long-term success and negatively affecting your financial position.
