Diagnose
The seven collapse patterns
1
Interpersonal Conflict
Unresolved friction between people, which every other pattern eventually routes through.
2
No Shared Vision, No Shared Future
Founding members holding different pictures of what this is for, surfacing as structural conflict.
3
Poor Governance and Power Shadows
Authority that is real but unnamed, and decisions nobody can point to the making of.
4
Financial Fragility
A model that only works while everyone is generous, and stops working exactly when it is tested.
5
Burnout and Loss of Commitment
The most committed people carrying the most, until the commitment itself is what breaks.
6
The Wrong People Problem
Getting membership and role fit right at the start, so you are not resolving it later.
7
The Scale Trap
The practices that carried twelve people quietly failing at forty, before anyone names it.
