Beyond DiSC:
The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team
An Intro to the Five Behaviors Powered By DiSC:
Do you have an intact work group that is ready for the “next step” in its evolution as a team? The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team is an assessment-based learning experience that helps individuals and organizations reveal what it takes to build a truly cohesive and effective team in the most approachable, competent, and effective way possible. Powered by Everything DiSC, the profiles help participants understand their own DiSC styles. Bringing together everyone’s personalities and preferences to form a cohesive, productive team takes work, but the payoff can be huge—for individuals, the team, and the organization.
Based on the best-selling book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni, the Five Behaviors program takes participants through the five stages of creating a cohesive team. They are:
-
Trust One Another
When team members are genuinely transparent and honest with one another, they are able to build vulnerability-based trust;
-
Engage in Conflict Around Ideas
When there is trust, team members are able to engage in unfiltered, constructive debate of ideas;
-
Commit to Decisions
When team members are able to offer opinions and debate ideas, they will be more likely to commit to decisions;
-
Hold One Another Accountable
When everyone is committed to a clear plan of action, they will be more willing to hold one another accountable;
-
Focus on Achieving Collective Results
The ultimate goal of building greater trust, conflict, commitment, and accountability is one thing: the achievement of results.
What others say about Five Behaviors Training with me:
As a result of our work with Chariti Gent Coaching + Consulting, communication among our team members is clearer than ever before and, as a result, we’re fostering a much more trusting internal culture. The enhancements we’ve experienced in our intra-office relationships as a result of our work with Chariti makes us a much more collaborative, productive, and innovative company. The tools Chariti provides through the Everything DiSC and The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team are assisting us in grooming our younger up-and-comers for future leadership roles, too, which is incredibly valuable in a fast-changing, tech-focused, recruiting environment like ours. I highly recommend Chariti to any top-performing organization that is serious about investing in their human capital and developing a highly strategic, tightly-knit, and results-focused workforce.
Chariti’s team building program was an incredible spark for our company’s growth, guiding us in building trust and helping us better work with and understand each other and our customers. Focusing on Patrick Lencioni’s 5B Model and the DiSC styles and profiles, we had a deep-dive into the challenges and opportunities in building trust, fostering and managing constructive conflict, and pushing towards more commitment, accountability and better results. Chariti’s consulting led to immediate results – more open, honest and sometimes tough conversations; more cohesive teamwork, and better communication between our team and with our customers. I would highly recommend Chariti Gent Coaching and Consulting to any company hoping to work more effectively as a team or work and communicate more clearly with each other and their customers.
