In his book, The Five Dysfucntions of a Team, Lencioni writes: "The foundation [of a great team] must be built with these five ideals layering upon each other: demonstrating trust, engaging in conflict, commit to group decisions, hold peer accountable, and focus on team results" (Lencioni, 2006). I believe this philosophy to be in line with transformational leadership, with the culminating and most important focus on the long-term results and goals of the team.

Simon Sinek says, “As it turns out, all the great inspiring leaders and organizations in the world, whether it’s Apple or Martin Luther King, Jr. or the Wright brothers, they all think, act and communicate the exact same way. And it’s the complete opposite to everyone else."]]> 2018-05-11 23:21:33 UTC https://padlet.com/tiffanyleamaher/agp3pvv8bszb/wish/260095024 High Impact Team & Leadership Development Activities tiffanyleamaher https://padlet.com/tiffanyleamaher/agp3pvv8bszb/wish/260095479 Written by Tom Heck, the following article contains activities to put teamwork and leadership theories into action.
