Patrick Lencioni – författare

Som nytillträdd vd förstår Kathryn snart att hennes ledningsgrupp har samarbetsproblem och att detta fått konsekvenser för hela verksamheten. Trots att man har en efterfrågad produkt och branschens kanske mest kompetenta personal lyckas organisationen inte nå ett bra resultat. Hon inser att detta blir hennes största utmaning hittills: För att undvika konkurs måste hon ena en arbetsgrupp i kris och få alla att gå åt samma håll. I en fängslande berättelse om en arbetsplats med samarbetssvårigheter väver Patrick Lencioni in en enkel modell för att förstå och övervinna de fem felfunktionerna i ickefungerande grupper. För att lättare tillämpa bokens modell i den egna organisationen behandlas lösningarna till felfunktionerna separat i en avslutande del. Patrick Lencioni är författare och ledarskapskonsult som specialiserat sig på utveckling av sund organisationskultur. Fem felfunktioner i en grupp är en internationell bästsäljare, översatt till 28 språk och en hjälp för alla som arbetar tillsammans – inom näringsliv, offentlig sektor och civilsamhälle.
