Book Reviews of Overcoming the Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Field Guide for Leaders, Managers, and Facilitators
Book Review: Quick, easy, and practical
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm not a big fan of management books because they tend to get long-winded, technical, and impractical. This book is none of the three.
I did not read the original book "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable" (240 pages), but with this field guide, you don't need to read it. The field guide is 180 pages of easy reading. It's not complicated, very practical, and you don't need to be a CEO to implement the concepts.
I was pleasantly surprised and would recommend this book to anyone who labors in futility on a fumbling team. It's worth your time.
