30Potential Success Inhibitors
Explanation: Success Inhibitors are characteristics that if present, can stall or sometimes even stop a career. They are most often related
to issues of self management and can keep a leader from fully leveraging his/her strengths.
Directions: Below you will find listed possible success inhibitors for you to assess or consider. These are written in a negative tone as it is
the presence of the negative that is to be assessed. Place an "X" in the appropriate category to indicate if the derailer is a concern of some
kind and to what extent. If none of the derailers are present, you will check "Not Applicable".
