To switch to one run mode from any other run mode you just need to 
return $self->new_run_mode.
So adjust your utility sub in such a way that it makes sense in your 
application and makes it easy
to return the run mode .

# Our current run mode
sub runmode_1 {
    my $html = foo();

   # utility will tell us what's next
   my $next_run_mode = utlity( qw/args to utility/ );

  return $self->$next_run_mode defined $next_run_mode;
  return $html;
}

sub utlity {

   return 'error_run_mode';

}

sub error_run_mode {
   ...
}
