The five dysfunctions:
1. Absence of trust – the foundation of real teamwork. If we don’t trust each other then we will have a fear of conflict which will lead to artificial harmony.
2. Fear of Conflict
3. Lack of commitment – and failure to buy into decisions. This leads to ambiguity. This is why conflict is so important. Disagree & commit.
4. Avoidance of accountability – once we have clarity and buy in, we must hold each other accountable
5. Inattention to Results

As someone newly to a management role with no prior experience this was great. The “fable” essentially embodies a model of effective management in context, synthesizing current theories. I like the method a lot, dinging a star for the occasional subliminal stereotyping and unnecessary spin (“staring down union bosses...”). But overall enjoyable, educational, and makes me want to read more of this author’s stuff.

A very easy to read book that covers the theory of team building. However, scratches the surface on a number of things without delving deep. Summary:
A good team
a. Trust intentions and motives of their team
b. Engage in unfiltered conflict around ideas
c. Commit to decisions and plans of action
d. Hold one another accountable
e. Achievement of collective results

Good explanation on how not treating the team of your peers as your “first team” breeds distrust and disfunction.. Managers tend to downplay it and prioritize their own organizations, often viewing their peers and their orgs as competition.

Good story. The innovative approach by telling a story to make the points was more engaging than just telling you what you need to do. I liked the story and the characters in the book. Lots to be leaned.

A useful framework wrapped in an illustrative realistic fictional story

Quick and to the point. Used for workshop internally and brought on good discussion.

Chose this based on a conference talk I've watched. I've enjoyed that it's written in the form of a novel and believe teams can benefit from reviewing this.

Read it within a 24 period and laughed out loud at how accurate some parts were. I found it a great guide for an introspective look to see how I could better work within a team framework. Will read it again.
