The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team Model
TRUST
BUILDING THE FOUNDATION OF A COHESIVE TEAM
Trust can only happen when team members are willing to be completely vulnerable with one another. There is confidence among team members that their peers’ intentions are good and that there is no reason to be protective or careful around each other.
How does a team build vulnerability-based trust?
Using a behavior assessment like DiSC can give team members deeper insights into themselves and their peers. It can help people understand each other and get comfortable being transparent about personal limitations.

Discover what it takes to build a truly cohesive and effective team.
The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team is an assessment-based learning experience that helps people discover what it takes to build a high-performing team.
Bringing together everyone’s personalities and preferences to develop a cohesive, productive team takes work, but the payoff can be huge — for your people, the team, and the organization.
This video introduces The Five Behaviors model in the context of a real team. It explains how the behaviors derive from The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, by New York Times best-selling author, Patrick Lencioni, and describes how critical the behaviors are to building a cohesive team.
The Five Behaviors: Personal Development
Build and fortify skills that transcend teams.
This new product was created to harness the power of The Five Behaviors across the entire organization. The Five Behaviors: Personal Development solution teaches individuals to become better teammates by integrating Patrick Lencioni’s model at the organizational level. The goal is to completely redefine teamwork and collaboration.
Personal Development was designed specifically to work for individuals; participants do not all need to be part of the same team. Rather, participants can carry the takeaways of this program from one team to the next, enabling a culture of teamwork.
Today’s organizations are working beyond a single team. Advances in technology are disrupting the market, globalization is forcing a new approach of working, and the teams of the future have never seen this level of diversity.
In essence, organizations need to equip their employees to create cohesive teams quickly to enable results.
Learners at all levels of an organization can benefit from this program and adopt its powerful principles, shape behaviors, and create a common language that empowers people to rewrite what it means to work together.
