Advance | Raised Forever: Five Dysfunctions of a Team – Neal Vinson

Five Dysfunctions of a Team

Since the first time you engaged in any team sport as a child, you probably learned this truth: teamwork can be hard. Sometimes one kid wants to have the ball all to himself, and other times players disagree on responsibilities. Even for adults working together is difficult. Politics, ego, and mistrust get in the way of building a well-performing team. An efficient team truly is greater than the sum of its parts, especially in the area of Christian ministry. Exceptional teamwork can provide a church or ministry team an opportunity to both share the gospel and display the gospel as it maximizes its impact in its community. The Five Dysfunctions of a Team is a powerful tool for anyone who works on a team. This process identifies five dysfunctions that hinder teams from performing at their best and provides useful strategies to overcome them. I’m convinced that any team who learns how to avoid these dysfunctions will be amazing at what they do.
