{"product_id":"the-5-dysfunction-of-a-team","title":"THE 5 DYSFUNCTION OF A TEAM","description":"  Most of the organizations where we live and work are marked by  under-performing, often dysfunctional teams. Why? Because teamwork  is an unnatural phenomenon, one that can only be achieved through  an understanding of the basic human tendencies which cause group  politics and self-interest. Unfortunately, too many leaders, and  the consultants who serve them, focus on contrived exercises and  tangential theories which do not address the core issues at the  heart of dysfunctional teams. Lencioni provides a powerful theory  about the five behavioral tendencies that corrupt teams. His  insights are at once both groundbreaking and simple, and they are  presented in a way that can be applied in any organization -  immediately. The five dysfunctions:    Recognition corrupts Results. The desire for individual  credit erodes the focus on collective success.  Popularity corrupts Accountability. The need to avoid  interpersonal discomfort prevents team members from holding one  another accountable for their behaviors.  Certainty corrupts Clarity. The fear of being wrong  prevents members of teams from making decisions in a timely and  definitive way.  Harmony corrupts Conflict. The desire for preserving  harmony eliminates the occurrence of productive, ideological  conflict.  Invulnerability corrupts Trust. The fear of being  vulnerable in front of team members prevents the building of trust  within the team.    The book begins with the fictional story of a woman who becomes CEO  of a struggling, high-profile Silicon Valley company with a  dysfunctional executive team and turns things around. Following the  story is an analysis of the five corruptions, diagnostic questions  to help readers assess their organizations, and a teamwork model  giving them action steps to overcome the corruptions.  This book is the equivalent of The Five Temptations of a  CEO for teams ? and comes at a time when every company is  grappling with how to create and innovate through group effort,  rather than individual contributor effort.
