Lencioni wrote this ‘field guide’ in response to the questions and comments from readers triggered by his best-selling The Five Dysfunctions of a Team (John Wiley & Sons, 2002). These are the absence of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability and inattention to results.
Overcoming the Five Dysfunctions of a Team sets out to specifically address these issues by showing leaders how best to implement the ideas outlined in his first book.
Lencioni offers relevant, practical guidance for overcoming the five dysfunctions and uses tools, exercises, assessments and real-world examples. He examines questions that all teams must ask themselves: Are we really a team? How are we currently performing? Are we prepared to invest the time and energy required to be a great team?
The book is targeted at leaders, line managers and consultants, showing them how to lead better, take risks, encourage disagreement and debate, utilise the power of communication and unify their teams.
The use of illustrative models and key points at the end of every section is easy to follow and Lencioni’s style is simple and straight to the point.
