5 Dysfunctions of a team template for PowerPoint & Google Slides

Description:
This 5 Dysfunctions of a Team template visually represents Patrick Lencioni’s model, helping organizations and teams recognize and address the common issues that hinder team performance. The template organizes these dysfunctions into a pyramid with five levels: Trust, Conflict, Commitment, Accountability, and Results. Each dysfunction is presented with clear, easy-to-understand descriptions, making it an excellent tool for workshops, team-building sessions, and leadership training.

The model starts with the foundational dysfunction, the lack of trust, which prevents open communication and vulnerability. From there, teams struggle with conflict, leading to an avoidance of healthy debates. Without commitment, teams are not fully invested in the decisions made. A lack of accountability then results in mediocre performance. Finally, when the previous dysfunctions are not addressed, teams focus on individual goals rather than collective results.

Ideal for business leaders, HR professionals, coaches, and consultants, this template aids in diagnosing team health, fostering discussions on improvement, and creating actionable plans for better collaboration. It’s a practical and visually engaging tool that simplifies complex team dynamics, allowing teams to move forward with clarity and purpose.

Who is it for
This template is perfect for HR professionals, team leaders, coaches, and consultants who are working to improve team dynamics, productivity, and collaboration. It’s also ideal for corporate workshops, leadership training, and team-building exercises.

Other Uses

It’s also suitable for project managers who want to identify and resolve team issues in their projects, or for organizational development professionals to assess the current health of teams within the company.
