Empower Your Team With The Five Behaviours Programme

Teams that show potential need a key understanding of each other’s communication and synergy–as they often determine the success of an entire organisation. Team leaders may be looking for a structured approach designed to help teams reach their full potential and cohesion. The Five Behaviours Team Development Programme, based on Patrick Lencioni’s international best-selling novel, primes team leaders to use the Five Behaviours Model to help their team excel.



Improving Team Cohesion

The Five Behaviours of a Cohesive Team helps teams apply the model of Trust, Conflict, Commitment, Accountability, and Results. The programme promotes greater accountability and enhanced communication. Team members hold each other accountable for their commitments and behaviours, which leads to follow-through on tasks and goals.


After all, if you’re a team leader, your goal is to transform your team into a force that consistently outperforms its competition. The best way to do that is to ensure they know how to communicate effectively. By developing a culture that encourages action after a team's deliberation, you can foster a sense of purpose and unity.


Maximise Company Success Through Your Teams

The Five Behaviours assessment addresses the full spectrum of training required for cohesive team behaviours by starting with a short self-assessment. These personalised reports are then explored during a facilitated workshop. By leveraging the insights from Everything DiSC alongside the Five Behaviours model, teams are empowered to make better decisions, minimise unnecessary conflict, and achieve their collective goals more efficiently.


Teams often have a mix of creative, analytical, and administrative skillsets. While analytical members are focused on data-driven insights, creative members can often lean more toward innovation. A workshop can teach a team and its leadership how to harness these excellent skill sets and blend them into collaboration.


Minimise Conflict and Stress

One of the biggest benefits of team training is the improved ability to manage conflict. In any team, disagreements are inevitable. However, many teams struggle with navigating conflict in a constructive way, often allowing it to undermine morale or derail projects. A facilitated workshop can teach team members to view conflict as a necessary part of growth and innovation. By creating an environment where honest discussions can take place, teams can resolve issues quickly, avoid festering resentments, and keep their focus on achieving results.


Take, for example, a product development team in a tech startup. This type of team usually consists of software developers, designers, and product managers. Each of them brings a unique perspective to the table, but may face friction when balancing technical constraints and feasibility with creativity.


Conflict is a necessary part of growth and innovation, but a facilitated workshop that focuses on the Five Behaviours model can help teach team members to view it as a positive instead of a negative.

Build A Team That Trusts Each Other

Patrick Lencioni wrote, “Trust is knowing that when a team member does push you, they’re doing it because they care about the team.” Partner with DISCGB for a comprehensive facilitated workshop powered by Everything DiSC. The profile will include an introduction, a section devoted to each of the five behaviours, and a summary of the team’s strength and challenges. By focusing on developing your team’s skills in interpersonal communication and teamwork, you can unlock a team’s full potential.
