Present and Participating
Episode" 185 of our week-daily virtual coffee, which takes place in new social audio platform, Chatter from 7-8am EST. It's free and open to anyone from anywhere in the world.
In today's session, we continued reading Patrick Lencioni’s Five Dysfunctions of a Team.
The 5 key takeaways from today's session are:
1. The team at Decision Tech is highly dysfunctional, lacking trust, open communication, and a collective focus on results.
2. Kathryn, the new CEO, is determined to address these issues head-on, even if it means some team members may not be a good fit going forward.
3. Building trust and vulnerability within the team is a critical first step, as evidenced by the personal histories and behavior styles exercise.
4. Defining clear, quantifiable goals and metrics for the team's success, and holding everyone accountable, is essential to shifting the focus from individual egos to collective results.
5. The team's political dynamics and resistance to change pose a significant challenge that Kathryn will need to navigate carefully, while maintaining her direct and honest approach.
