I’ve just completed a two-day retreat with a fast-growing leadership team. Rarely do we see a leadership team as dysfunctional as this one. Most of the projects floundered amid political infighting, turfdom, and miscommunication. They scored themselves at the lowest levels we’ve seen on our Team Dynamics Survey.
