About This Book
Most teams fail not because of strategy or talent, but because of five specific, preventable human behaviors.
Patrick M. Lencioni delivers his argument through a leadership fable — a deceptively simple narrative that makes abstract dysfunction concrete and recognizable. Following in the tradition of his earlier works The Five Temptations of a CEO and The Four Obsessions of an Extraordinary Executive, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team uses story to expose the root causes of political infighting, lack of accountability and poor results that quietly undermine even talented groups.
For leaders who have ever watched a capable team collapse under the weight of its own friction, this book names what's actually wrong — and shows a clear path toward building the trust and commitment that high performance requires.
