Group Dynamics and the Five Dysfunctions of a Team

This session on Group Dynamics and the Five Dysfunctions of a Team delves into the complexities of team behavior and the common pitfalls that hinder team success. Participants will explore Patrick Lencioni's model, which identifies five dysfunctions: absence of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability, and inattention to results. Through interactive discussions and case studies, attendees will gain insights into diagnosing and addressing these dysfunctions, fostering a cohesive and high-performing team environment.
