The Five Dysfunctions of a Team
Team leadership
Maintain accountability among team members.
from The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable by Patrick Lencioni
How to Apply This
- Make goals and standards clear.
Team members are more likely to hold each other accountable if they are clear about what the team needs to accomplish, who needs to do what, and how everyone should behave. - Implement regular progress reviews.
Each team member should communicate regularly about how they are doing compared to their stated objectives and standards. It encourages each member to be accountable for what they do. - Reward your team.
By rewarding team performance instead of individual performance, a culture of accountability will be created. This is because other team members will hold their colleagues accountable if their own performance is linked to theirs.
