A very practical companion to the original Lencioni model, and it does a great job turning concepts into actionable tools. Instead of just explaining the five dysfunctions, it walks through exercises, assessments, and real-world steps that teams can actually use to build trust, handle conflict, improve accountability, and stay focused on results.What stands out is how structured and usable it is—it feels less theoretical and more like something you can actively apply in meetings or team development sessions. The tools are straightforward, and the examples help make the concepts easier to translate into real workplace behavior.Overall, it’s a strong, hands-on leadership resource that’s especially valuable if you’re looking to move from understanding team dynamics to actually improving them in practice
Incredible book and workbook if you truly want to improve your own and your teams performance.Unfortunately- my book arrived with water damage in one corner.
Everything you need to know about managing teams
Just wish more company would do classes on
I wish more managers read this one.
