The Five Dysfunctions Of A Team by Patrick Lencioni is one of my favorite all-time books on teambuilding and I’ve found a way to teach the lessons of this fantastic must-read book using hands-on experiential teambuilding games and now I want to share how I do this with you!
If you teach team skills then this resource is for you.
Can you believe Lencioni, a NY Times best selling author, poo-poos teambuilding games?
When I first heard this I said “How could that be?!”
If you’re reading this post then you know teambuilding games are the fastest, easiest way to help people “get it” at a deeper level because we’re engaging the mind AND the heart of the participant.
Could it be that Lencioni has never experienced the effective INTEGRATION of an experiential learning exercise (teambuilding game) into a team development workshop. After all, many inexperienced trainers will lead teambuilding games in a disjointed and ultimately ineffective way.
Keep reading if you love the book AND teambuilding games…
Using the recording below plus the detailed class notes, you can learn how to teach the principles of the Five Dysfunctions book in a fun and engaging way using the power of teambuilding exercises.
I love Lencioni’s book because the five principles he offers up provide a wonderful framework upon which to build a powerful teambuilding program. In case you haven’t read this book, the five “dysfunctions” of a team are:
- Absence of Trust
- Fear of Conflict
- Lack of Commitment
- Avoidance of Accountability
- Inattention to Results
My personal favorite from this list is Absence of Trust. Can you guess why?
Which one strikes a chord with you? Which one is the pivotal dysfunction in your mind?
I have advised many a Teamwork Facilitators to use the book as the framework for their team training event.
But Lencioni in all his wisdom offers no experiential learning activities to drive home the lessons of his book.
In this interactive 80-minute TeleSeminar led by IATF President Tom Heck you’ll learn 5 teambuilding activities that will help you bring the material in this fantastic book alive and drive the lessons home in a memorable way.
Tom goes through each of the 5 Dysfunctions step-by-step giving you his personal interpretation of this important work.
This is your chance to learn a simple way of combining great content from the book and great activities to make the training memorable and fun.
Even if you haven’t read the book yet, you will still benefit from this recording.
When you purchase the recording of this TeleSeminar we’ll also provide you with all the class notes and even step-by-step lead-it-yourself directions for the teambuilding games.
