He provides a strong framework and doable recommendations for overcoming these typical obstacles and creating a united, productive team. Like his previous works, Lencioni has written an engaging parable with a profoundly important—yet surprisingly straightforward—message for anybody who aspires to be an extraordinary team leader.
