Overview of the Five Dysfunctions

  1. Lack of trust — When they don’t trust each other, team members are afraid to communicate honestly and openly. They hide their real thoughts and feelings. They are unwilling to take responsibility for fear of making mistakes. If team members cannot communicate honestly, they cannot possibly build a platform of trust.
  2. Fear of confrontation — When they don’t trust each other, teammates are reluctant to confront each other. Because they hide their feelings and do not communicate, they cannot engage in constructive conflict and debate. Discussion is muted, indirect and vapid. Ideas don’t get worked through. Progress stalls and the team is ineffective.
  3. Absence of commitment — When team members are not committed to the team and the project, they just go through the motions of attending meetings and appearing to follow up. They do not seize opportunities. Progress stalls.
  4. Absence of accountability — When team members don’t trust each other, won’t dis- cuss things honestly and aren’t committed, they don’t hold each other to a standard of accountability. Thus, efforts lack focus, energy dissipates and everything unaccount- ably, but predictably, falls apart.
  5. Failure to focus on goals — Members of a dysfunctional team pursue personal or departmental agendas instead of the team’s goal. They may be out to score ego points or undercut a rival, but whatever their object is, it isn’t what the team needs to do.
