This week on Behind The Lineup, we’re diving into one of the most impactful leadership books ever written for building strong, cohesive teams – The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni.
In this episode, we break down each of the five dysfunctions that hold teams back:
Absence of Trust
Fear of Conflict
Lack of Commitment
Avoidance of Accountability
Inattention to Results
We’ll not only explain what each dysfunction means, but also connect it directly to baseball. From clubhouse culture to on-field execution, we discuss how these dysfunctions can tear a team apart – and how great coaches and players overcome them.
Whether you’re a coach building a winning culture or a player striving to be a great teammate, this episode gives you actionable lessons to take back to your team today.
Plus, this week’s Book Recommendation spotlights The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, showing why it’s a must-read for anyone serious about leadership and long-term success in sports.
