The Five Dysfunctions of a Team
A Leadership Fable
Told as a short story about a new CEO and a struggling leadership team, this book explains the five problems that stop teams working well, and how to fix them, starting with trust.
Three big ideas
- Trust is the baseTeams need people who are willing to be open about their weaknesses and mistakes.
- Healthy conflictWithout trust, people avoid honest debate, and bad ideas go unchallenged.
- Commitment and accountabilityWhen people have been heard, they commit, and then hold each other to it.
