If you don’t recall the author’s name you may recall one of his best sellers, the most current of which is: The Five Dysfunctions of a Team. Patrick Lencioni's eight best-selling business books have sold 2.5 million copies around the world with translations in 20 different languages. The books appear on national best seller lists year after year and tackle topics surrounding organizational health, leadership and teams.

The Five Dysfunctions of a Team is the flagship book for Lencioni having sold more than one million copies. The author’s groundbreaking theory on teams focuses on collective team behaviors that lead to success.

The objectives of our November 13th session are to:
1) Acquaint you with the five dysfunctions.
2) Identify some of the actions the author recommends for addressing these dysfunctions.
3) Discuss and share with one another some of the actions our participants have used to address these dysfunctions and with what level of success.
