Silosolation
Silosolation
The organization has fractured into self-contained units that have learned to function without each other. Each team is doing fine on their own. The whole is producing less than the sum of its parts — and the gap between the two is where your best people are slowly burning out.
Effectiveness Dies in Darkness
The most visible indicator of silosolation is not conflict between departments. It is the absence of it. When units have learned to function without each other, the gap at the handoff is where coordination fails and your best work never gets done.
