Building Effective and Strategic Teams
Effective and Strategic teams that operate at their maximum potential ultimately lead to our schools operating at their maximum potential, which is what our students need and deserve.
Based on the simple, proven model for team development described in Patrick Lencioni’s best-selling book The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, provide leaders with skills to determine the dysfunctions of their teams, treatment plans, and how to build trust in order to make substantial progress toward becoming a more cohesive and functioning team.
