WHY IT WORKS
The Five Dysfunctions of a Team™ model gives teams a powerful shared language for trust, conflict, and collaboration. Through guided reflection, facilitated conversation, and real-world application, your team will:
• Name the invisible dynamics that shape how you work together
• Practice trust- and accountability-building in real time
• Develop norms and behaviors to support team health
• Walk away with practical tools and a renewed sense of alignment
This isn’t a theoretical session—it’s a hands-on, high-impact experience tailored to your team.
