OVERCOMING TEAM DYSFUNCTION

The Five Behaviors Model is used to help team members learn to work together more efficiently and effectively and become a more cohesive team.

How do you know whether or not your team is dysfunctional? Sometimes, it’s very obvious. Other times, “organizational blinders” prevent us from seeing what is very apparent to others.

Here’s a very brief assessment to help you gain some perspective:

  1. Are team members genuinely transparent and honest with one another?
  2. Do team members regularly engage in unfiltered, constructive debate of ideas?
  3. Are all team members able to offer opinions and freely debate ideas?
  4. Do team members openly hold one another accountable?
  5. Does the team routinely achieve its desired results?

If you’re not able to confidently answer, “Yes” to these five questions, your work team or teams may benefit from an assessment-based learning experience.

Your Team Can Do Better.

THE FIVE BEHAVIORS OF A COHESIVE TEAM is an assessment- based learning experience that helps individuals and organizations reveal what it takes to build a truly cohesive and effective team in the most approachable, competent, and effective way possible. Powered by Everything DiSC®, the profiles help participants understand their own DiSC® styles. Bringing together everyone’s personalities and preferences to form a cohesive, productive team takes work, but the payoff can be huge—for individuals, the team, and the organization.

To gain this advantage, teams must:
  • Trust One Another

    When team members are genuinely transparent and honest with one another, they are able to build vulnerability-based trust.

  • Engage in Conflict Around Ideas

    When there is trust, team members are able to engage in unfiltered, constructive debate of ideas.

  • Commit to Decisions

    When team members are able to offer opinions and debate ideas, they will be more likely to commit to decisions.

  • Hold One Another Accountable

    When everyone is committed to a clear plan of action, they will be more willing to hold one another accountable.

  • Focus on Achieving Collective Results

    The ultimate goal of building greater trust, conflict, commitment, and accountability is one thing: the achievement of results.

There are many reasons teams fail.
There’s one proven way to help them succeed.
