The Five Behaviors™ of a Cohesive Team
Team Development Solutions Unlike Any Other
Groundbreaking Model for Developing Cohesive Teams
The Five Behaviors™ of a Cohesive Team is a process that guides intact teams to become more supportive, effective and focused on achieving shared results. During the process, teams explore the model’s core principles — Trust, Conflict, Commitment, Accountability and Results — through science-based assessments, a series of thought-provoking discussions and working sessions.
Combining the framework of Patrick Lencioni’s model for teamwork with personalized insights can craft powerful, customized and authentic team development solutions that empower individuals to make lasting changes.
The Five Behaviors® is the only team development solution that empowers individuals through self-discovery and constructive behavioral modeling to rewrite the traditional rules of teamwork.
Powerful, Proven Model
The Five Behaviors® is based on New York Times best-selling author Patrick Lencioni’s groundbreaking model for developing cohesive teams through five key behaviors: Trust, Conflict, Commitment, Accountability and Results. With more than 3.2 million copies in print, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team is a cornerstone methodology for teamwork and organizational development.
Personality Insights in Action
The Five Behaviors® combines this powerful team model with personalized insights, revealed through personality assessments like Everything DiSC®, to help individuals understand themselves and others on their team. The result is a unique and impactful team development solution that empowers team members to turn insights into action and ensure tangible, lasting change.

“The process is effective for teams that may not be working at their optimal best, as well as for high-functioning teams looking to take the next step forward. While simple, it is not easy; requiring patience, trust in the process itself and a willingness for all involved to participate fully.”
