Hello everybody and Welcome back! In this week’s episode we are in the third installment of our five-part series that we’re calling How to diagnose and cure the five dysfunctions of a team!

I’m your host Justin Williams. I am the founder of Beacon Growth Consulting.

Today we’re breaking down the third dysfunction of a team which is Lack of Commitment. If you haven’t heard episodes 1 & 2 yet, press pause and go check those out first. The Five Dysfunctions build upon each other and need to be cured in order beginning with the first: Absence of Trust, then Fear of Conflict. Lack of Commitment is the third, then fourth is Avoidance of Accountability, and fifth is the Inattention to Results.

This is all inspired by one of my FAVORITE authors Pat Lencioni’s classic book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team. We’re taking 5 minutes each week to study them, how they manifest in the workplace, and a few ways to cure is through a real life example I’ve experienced.

Two process changes can help you fix this problem, and in my Truth Challenge for the week, I recommend a Leadership style assessment from Pat Lencioni's Table Group. The link is below.
