Examples should include indecisiveness is when a person cannot prioritize
activities in order of importance. Personality traits play a role. Less emotionally stable
leaders who fear upsetting others allow debates to drag on for too long. Feeling out of

People need a clearly defined starting and ending point so that they feel empowered to
move forward. Also, providing incentives for decision-making may boost the speed of
decisions made by leaders.
