The Five Dysfunctions of a Team is a leadership fable that tells the story of a team that is struggling to achieve its goals. The team is led by a charismatic but arrogant CEO who is unable to create a cohesive and productive team. The team's problems are compounded by a lack of trust, communication, and commitment. The fable follows the team as they work through their dysfunctions and eventually learn to work together as a cohesive unit.

The Five Dysfunctions

The five dysfunctions of a team are:

1. Absence of Trust: Team members are unwilling to be vulnerable with one another, which hinders collaboration and innovation.
2. Fear of Conflict: Team members avoid conflict, which leads to unresolved issues and resentment.
3. Lack of Commitment: Team members are not fully committed to the team's goals, which leads to a lack of motivation and effort.
4. Avoidance of Accountability: Team members are unwilling to hold one another accountable for their actions, which leads to a lack of performance and results.
5. Inattention to Results: Team members focus on individual goals rather than the team's goals, which leads to a lack of focus and direction.
