Challenges
Every organization faces challenges, so the best way to avoid their consequences is to prepare employees in terms of their competencies.

The proposed activities and ideas still look the same or are only intended to copy the competition ahead of you.
Fear of change
Any proposal to change the company or suggestion that things could be done differently is met with immediate resistance.
Short-sightedness in decision-making
Decisions are made under the influence of emotions and in response to the current market situation, without considering the longer time horizon.
No growth or a decline in sales
Previous strategies are no longer working, and over time, you notice a distinct lack of growth or decline in sales.
Failure to analyze the market and competition
Ineffective or non-existent competitive analysis leads to a progressive loss of market share and a decline in the number of customers.
