Book Review-"The Five Dysfunctions of a Team"

Just finished reading “The five dysfunctions of a team” by Patrick Lencioni. Nice book. Although it does not present rocket science, it does help you see your team in a different light, and put some words to that uncomfortable feeling about the team. The text is simple, and presented in a story-like format to make it fit for quick consumption. The language is crisp, and the focus clear.

The story is set in a Silicon Valley start-up which is plagued by team problems. The problems are presented through discussions within the team, and it is explained how the dysfunctions are all related and feed on each other. The dysfunctions range from Lack of Trust to Inattentiveness towards Results. Any team leader, or manager, or even team members will definitely relate to it.

There is also a questionnaire to help you assess your own team (Insert Evil Grin here!). Coming soon, the results of the experiment on my team.
