Summary:
In the years following the publication of Patrick Lencioni’s best-seller The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, fans have been clamoring for more information on how to implement the ideas outlined in the book. In Overcoming the Five Dysfunctions of a Team, Lencioni offers more specific, practical guidance for overcoming the Five Dysfunctions—using tools, exercises, assessments, and real-world examples. He examines questions that all teams must ask themselves: Are we really a team? How are we currently performing? Are we prepared to invest the time and energy required to be a great team? Written concisely and to the point, this guide gives leaders, line managers, and consultants alike the tools they need to get their teams up and running quickly and effectively.

Cute read, but nothing much to gain for academics
Customer Rating:  Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2
Mandatory book for a class that failed to deliver academic quality work. While a nice enough read for airport commuters between flights, this book is rather simplistic and lacks that real impact. In short, this book talks about five dysfunctions, which are pretty well commonly understood by most managers/leaders. If it is a mandatory read or free, go for it, but there are plenty of other books out there that can provide better insight into team management like The Leadership Challenge by Kouzes and Posner.

Great Customer Services

Delivered on the promissed time frame.
I recomend and will use this service again.

Interesting Idea that Requires Personalization
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
"Overcoming the Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Field Guide for Leaders, Managers and Facilitators" represents an interesting idea...that of offering tools and techniques to implement the Model set forth in another one of Patrick Lencioni's books, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable.

In essence, this book offers a guide to implementing the Model noted above without the need to engage the consulting services of Lencioni and his firm. This is a novel, and generous, idea to facilitate the implementation of this Model at a low relative cost (compared to engaging a consulting firm, for example).

The book presents some tangible and easy-to-follow ideas focused on implementing the "Five Dysfunctions" Model. That being said, the actual implementation requires personalization based on a number of factors, including the dynamics of the team working on the Model.

While such personalization may be expected, given that a "one size fits all" solution is unlikely to meet the needs of all teams, this is a useful book, especially if you find the "Five Dysfunctions" Model of use.

Useful field guide
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
Overcoming the Five Dysfunctions of a Team is an essential guide for managers and team leaders of all levels. It contains practical exercises and models for addressing each dysfunction as well as additional resources for further education. No team leader should be without it!

Quick turn-around - Great Condition
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
Thanks much - I needed the books for work and had them quicker than expected.
