Overview of the Model Dysfunction #1: Absence of Trust
Members of great teams trust one another on a fundamental, emotional level, and they are comfortable being vulnerable with each other about their weaknesses, mistakes, fears, and behaviors. They get to a point where they can be completely open with one another, without filters. This is essential because……
8
Overview of the Model Dysfunction #2: Fear of Conflict
….teams that trust one another are not afraid to engage in passionate dialogue around issues and decisions that are key to the organization’s success. They do not hesitate to disagree with, challenge, and question one another, all in the spirit of finding the best answers, discerning the truth, and making great decisions. This is important because……
9
Overview of the Model Dysfunction #3: Lack of Commitment
….teams that engage in unfiltered conflict are able to achieve genuine buy-in around important decisions, even when various members of the team initially disagree. That’s because they ensure that all opinions and ideas are put on the table and considered, giving confidence to team members that no stone has been left unturned. This is critical because……
10
Overview of the Model Dysfunction #4: Avoidance of Accountability
….teams that commit to decisions and standards of performance do not hesitate to hold one another accountable for adhering to those decisions and standards. What is more, they don’t rely on the team leader as the primary source of accountability, they go directly to their peers. This matters because……
11
Overview of the Model Dysfunction #5: Inattention to Results
….teams that trust one another, engage in conflict, commit to decisions, and hold one another accountable are very likely to set aside their individual needs and agendas and focus almost exclusively on what is best for the team. They do not give in to the temptation to place their departments, career aspirations, or ego-driven status ahead of the collective results that define team success……
12
Overcoming Dysfunction #1 Building Trust
Tools: Personal histories, Behavioral profiling Key Points-Building Trust
Trust is the foundation of teamwork On a team, trust is all about vulnerability, which is
difficult for most people Building trust takes time, but the process can be
greatly accelerated Like a good marriage, trust on a team is never
complete; it must be maintained over time.
13
Overcoming Dysfunction #2 Mastering Conflict
Tools: Conflict profiling, conflict norming, mining conflict
Key Points-Mastering Conflict Good conflict among team members requires trust,
which is all about engaging in unfiltered, passionate debate around issues.
Even among the best teams, conflict will at times be uncomfortable.
Conflict norms, though they will vary from team to team, must be discussed and made clear among the team.
The fear of occasional personal conflict should not deter a team from having regular, productive debate.
14
Overcoming Dysfunction #3 Achieving Commitment
Tools: Commitment clarification, Cascading communication
Key Points-Achieving Commitment Commitment requires clarity and buy-in Clarity requires that teams avoid assumptions and
ambiguity, and they end discussions with a clear understanding about what they’ve decided upon.
Buy-in does not require consensus. Members of great teams learn to disagree with one another and still commit to a decision.
15
Overcoming Dysfunction #4 Embracing Accountability
Tools: Team Effectiveness Exercise Key Points-Embracing Accountability
Accountability on a strong team occurs directly among peers
For a culture of accountability to thrive, a leader must demonstrate a willingness to confront difficult issues
The best opportunity for holding one another accountable occurs during meetings, and the regular review of a team scoreboard provides a clear context for doing so.
16
Overcoming Dysfunction #5 Focusing on Results
Tools: Scorecard Key Points-Focusing on Results
The true measure of a team is that it accomplishes the results it sets out to as a team
To avoid distractions, team members must prioritize the results of the team over their individual or departmental needs
To stay focused, teams must publicly clarify their desired results and keep them visible
17
Tips for Improving Trust Use a personality instrument like the
DISC, Myers-Briggs or the Harrison Assessment
Find opportunities to spend more time together face to face.
Share personal histories with one another.
Implement the team effectiveness exercise.
18
Tips for Improving Conflict Clearly set the expectation that conflict
is both good and necessary for the team.
Use the personality assessment to determine how different team members naturally engage in conflict.
Establish team rules of engagement for acceptable conflict.
Improve the effectiveness of meetings Ensure that someone on the team is
mining for conflict.
19
Tips for Improving Commitment Force the team to achieve clarity and
closure At the end of every meeting, a team
should explicitly review the key decisions made and agree on what needs to be communicated to employees and other constituencies-cascading communication.
Collectively set objectives and deadlines Establish contingency plans
20
Tips for Improving Accountability Use the Team Effectiveness
Exercise to provide a forum for quick and effective exchange of feedback.
Publish goals and standards of behavior.
Regularly review progress against goals.
Start meetings using a lightning round.
21
Tips for Improving Results Have all the team members make public
commitments to objectives. Ensure the alignment of goals
throughout the organization Ensure team-based awards form the
basis for most compensation and recognition programs.
Confirm that the team priority is in order
DISC
Understanding Yourself and Others
23
Why DISC? Looks at behavioral styles and
preferences-excellent tool for helping people understand themselves and others
Validated over 40 years of practical use based on early research of Robert Marston
Different from Myers-Briggs developed from Carl Jung research. Myers-Briggs focuses on how people approach their environment attitudinally and intellectually and how they process information.
Simple and practical tool
24

Synergistic Problem Solving Model
Defines the key factors that contribute to effective team solutions
and decisions.

Effective Solution = Quality x AcceptanceTeam Scenario ARationale thinking yields Quality: 10
Group leader imposed solution not accepted by the groupAcceptance: 0
Effectiveness=10 x0=0
Team Scenario BIrrational thinking yields Quality: 0
The group sang Kum ba yaaround the table and
accepted a poor solutionAcceptance: 10
Effectiveness=0x10=0
32
Effective Solution =Quality x AcceptanceTeam Scenario CRationale thinking yields Quality: 9
Strived for consensus with fairly high acceptance
Acceptance: 9Effectiveness= 9x9=81
“A far more effective solution than Scenario A or B.”
33
Rational Skills and Processes Analyzing the situation: constraints, available resources,
facts and assumptions
Setting objectives: distinguishing from actions Simplifying the problem: small, manageable parts
Considering alternatives: for solving the problem
Discussing the consequences: of alternative solutions and courses of action
34
Interpersonal Skills and Processes Listening to others
Supporting their efforts to do well and building on their ideas
Differing with others in a constructive manner
Participating equally in group discussion
Striving for consensus with respect to group solutions and decisions
