Summary

A number of factors will contribute to team ineffectiveness, including: • insufficient resources and training,

• unrealistic expectations,

• poor organizational culture,

• lack of psychological safety and emotional intelligence, and

• lack of conflict resolution tools. Often, underlying all of these reasons is a lack of clarity around team goals and individual roles, which contributes to a lack of trust among team members.
