Organizational Attention Deficit Disorder (OADD) occurs when an organization is unable to focus on critical priorities, taking on too many projects at once. Symptoms include uncertainty about direction, too much simultaneous change, and disconnected initiatives. Research shows these factors lead to employee frustration and uncertainty that slows productivity. Managing OADD requires leaders to clearly identify top priorities, understand employee capacity and workload, and manage expectations from upper management to prevent overload and maintain focus.
