APOSTLE ANTHONY YARDE LEADERSHIP TRAINING
They are five dysfunctions to teamwork:
Absence of Trus
The first of the dysfunctions, absence of trust, stems from teams unwillingness to be vulnerable within the group.
Team members who are not genuinely open with one another about their mistakes and weaknesses make it impossible to build a foundation for trust.
Fear of Conflict
This failure to build trust is damaging because it sets a tone for the second dysfunction: fear of conflict.
Teams that lack trust are incapable of engaging in unfiltered passionate debate of ideas.
Instead, they resort to veiled discussions and guarded comments.
Lack of Commitment
A lack of healthy conflict is a problem because it ensures the third dysfunction of a team:
lack of commitment.
without having aired their opinions in the course of passionate and open debate, team members rarely, if ever, buy in and commit to decisions, though they may feign agreement during meetings.
Avoidance of Accountability
Because of this lack of real commitment and buy-in, team members develop an avoidance of accountability, the fourth dysfunction. Without committing to a clear plan of action, even the most focused and driven people often hesitate to call their peers on actions and behaviors that seem counterproductive to the good of the team.
Inattention to Results
Failure to hold one another accountable creates an environment where the fifth dysfunction can thrive. Inattention to results occurs when team members put their individual needs (such as ego, career development, or recognition) or even the needs of their divisions above the collective goals of the team.
