Whether you are a multinational company, a small department within a larger one or a firm with a small team, keeping it simple is the key. This assessment is a straightforward diagnostic tool for evaluating a team’s susceptibility to dysfunction as identified in Patrick Lencioni’s book The Five Dysfunctions of a Team. Along with this assessment is a workshop designed to overcome those habits and behaviours and take a team from dysfunctional to functional and cohesive.
