The Five Behaviors for Powerful Team Development ^™

This program is for an intact team. Based on the work and the book by Patrick Lencioni, The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team^™ fundamentals uses the Everything DiSC assessment to focus on the five critical behaviors. Before choosing this program, consider the question: Is the team really a TEAM?

A team is a relatively small number of people (from three to twenty) who meet on a regular basis and are collectively responsible for results. The team members share common goals as well as the rewards and responsibilities for achieving them. Not every group is a team. For example, a group that appears to be a team might simply be a collection of people who report to the same manager, but who have relatively little interdependence and mutual accountability. If a group does not meet the criteria of a true team, this process is unlikely to produce the results they expect.

To gain the competitive advantage, teams must focus on the five important behaviors: Trust, Conflict, Commitment, Accountability and Results. In this program, each module builds on the previous one. Exercises within each module give participants the opportunity to practice the behaviors together.

• Module 1: Introduction
• Module 2: Building Trust
• Module 3: Mastering Conflict
• Module 4: Achieving Commitment
• Module 5: Embracing Accountability
• Module 6: Focusing on Results
• Module 7: Review and Action Plan

Each module will run between 2-4 hours in length. Some may go a little shorter or especially a little longer depending on the discussions needed to reach the goal of that module. In general, the full program for all seven modules will consist of 5 half-day sessions. This in-depth experiential program can take place over a number of weeks with perhaps a module being conducted every week or two, depending on the needs and opportunities within the organization. This program can also be delivered in 5 virtual sessions or 2 full day sessions.

As part of this program, each team member will experience The Five Behaviors^™ assessment.

This powerful online assessment will be given to the team members before the first module is experienced. Video clips are also part of this program.
