- Lack of incentives for volunteering new ideas
- Excessive process that creates perceived obstacles
- Shallow bench of thought leaders
- Dysfunctional review cycles and content governance
- Little or no culture of thought leadership
- Competing or vague definitions of thought leadership
- Weak alignment on thought leadership program goals
- Broken dialogue between marketing and business stakeholders
