Ever felt like your team is a little... chaotic? You're not alone. Most teams struggle with dysfunction in one way or another, but the good news is, there’s a fix. In this episode, we dive into The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni and break down what’s holding your team back—and how to turn things around.


From trust issues to lack of accountability, we’re tackling the most common challenges that make teams ineffective. We’ll share real-world examples from our own experiences, including the surprising signs that your team might not trust you as much as you think. Plus, we’ll give you practical strategies to build a culture of open communication, commitment, and results.
