The Five Dysfunctions of a Team (Patrick Lencioni)

In "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team," Patrick Lencioni outlines common obstacles to effective teamwork. First, a lack of trust prevents open communication. Second, fear of conflict leads to avoidance of important discussions. Third, lack of commitment results from unclear goals and decisions. Fourth, avoidance of accountability means team members don't hold each other responsible for their actions. Finally, lack of attention to results shifts focus away from team objectives. Addressing these dysfunctions fosters a healthier team dynamic, enhancing collaboration and overall performance.
