A. Hollow talk

B. Debilitating fear

C. Complex measurement systems

D. Mindless reliance

E. Constructive internal competition

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:  

The correct answer is A, B, D only.

Key Points The correct answer is A, B, and D.

The other options, C. Complex measurement systems and E. Constructive internal competition, are not as likely to prevent managers from effective implementation and sustainability.

• Complex measurement systems can be a challenge to implement and manage, but they can be helpful in tracking the progress of an initiative and identifying areas where improvement is needed. Constructive internal competition can be a motivating force, but it can also lead to conflict and resentment if it is not managed effectively.
• Debilitating fear, hollow talk, and mindless reliance are all more likely to prevent managers from effective implementation and sustainability.
• Debilitating fear can paralyze managers and prevent them from taking action.
• Hollow talk can create a sense of false progress and lead to complacency.
• Mindless reliance on the status quo can prevent managers from exploring new ideas and making necessary changes.
• If managers want to be successful in implementing and sustaining new initiatives, they need to be aware of these barriers and take steps to overcome them.
