Abstract: This article explores reasons why capable individuals hesitate to step into formal leadership roles, despite having the skills and abilities to lead effectively. Through a review and synthesis of relevant psychological and organizational behavior literature, common factors contributing to reluctance are identified. Key psychological reasons include concerns about work-life balance under increased demands, as well as fears of failure or criticism in leadership positions. Social barriers include a lack of encouragement from senior leaders, ambiguity about leadership expectations, and politicized organizational cultures. To overcome reluctance, the article recommends practical strategies for organizations, such as providing leaders with support structures, coaching, and role modeling. Communicating realistic expectations and definitions of leadership, as well as fostering collaborative cultures, are posited to help motivate capable individuals to accept leadership potential. An industry case study example from Aflac illustrates how addressing work-life concerns can successfully tap new leadership potential.
