In The Five Dysfunctions of a Team Patrick Lencioni once again offers a leadership fable that is as enthralling and instructive as his first two best-selling books, The Five Temptations of a CEO and The Four Obsessions of an Extraordinary Executive. This time, he turns his keen intellect and storytelling power to the fascinating, complex world of teams. Kathryn Petersen, Decision Tech's CEO, faces the ultimate leadership crisis: Uniting a team in such disarray that it threatens to bring down the entire company. Will she succeed? Will she be fired? Will the company fail? Lencioni's utterly gripping tale serves as a timeless reminder that leadership requires as much courage as it does insight. Throughout the story, Lencioni reveals the five dysfunctions which go to the very heart of why teams even the best ones-often struggle. He outlines a powerful model and actionable steps that can be used to overcome these common hurdles and build a cohesive, effective team. Just as with his other books, Lencioni has written a compelling fable with a powerful yet deceptively simple message for all those who strive to be exceptional team leaders.
Reviews with the most likes.
This little unassuming book is well organized, compelling, and actionable. The leadership fable offers characters and intrigue, making the key points easy to pull out of the abstraction. Management and leadership books can be so dull, even when the information is useful.
Thankfully, Lencioni saves the boring information - that we are going to need - until after spoon feeding us the key points with a short story.
4 stars - found Lencioni's writing to be full of simple but compelling literary techniques, such as clearly telegraphed foreshadowing. Very much new to the genre of self-help books written through fictional stories, and really enjoyed it! Found it much more digestible and memorable in this story format, and useful summary at the end. Interesting and not immediately apparent takeaways such as meetings being the perfect time for constructive arguments, and the importance of not taking such vital arguments ‘offline' or postponing them.
The writing of this book is wrought, so not a great read just for enjoyment, but good for practice of executive function.
