Understanding the Five Behaviors® Model

Five Behaviors® Model
5 behaviors of a cohesive team

Trust One Another

When team members are genuinely transparent and honest with one another, it forms a safe environment that creates vulnerability-based trust, where individuals feel secure to share their thoughts, ideas, and concerns openly. As teams harness members’ collective intelligence and diverse perspectives, the results are innovative solutions, increased engagement, and a shared commitment to achieving exceptional outcomes.

Engage in Conflict of Ideas

With trust, individuals feel secure enough to express their ideas openly, creating an environment where diverse viewpoints can be shared and debated, leading to richer discussions and more robust decision-making. Constructive debate fosters a culture of critical thinking, challenging assumptions, and exploring innovative solutions. With trust acting as the foundation, a team can harness the collective wisdom and intelligence of its members.

Commit to Decisions ​

When team members are able to offer opinions and debate ideas, they feel heard and respected. In this inclusive setting, team members become more invested in the decision-making process, as they recognize the value placed on their contributions. By nurturing a culture that encourages open dialogue and respectful debate, The Five Behaviors® of a Cohesive Team establishes the conditions for enhanced commitment and successful implementation of decisions.

Hold Each Other Accountable

When team members align and commit to a shared course of action, they recognize a collective sense of ownership and responsibility, leading to a culture where team members willingly hold each other accountable for their actions and behaviours. This culture of mutual accountability promotes a sense of shared responsibility for achieving team goals and drives individual and collective excellence.

We have been clients of LeaderSharp for many years. With the merger of 2 companies with different cultures and management that struggled with communication, Lisa and Chris introduced our team to many new practices that we rely on to this day. From tools for better communication, to introducing peer coaching and mentorship, Great Feedback and developing our corporate values. LeaderSharp set us on a path to creating a great culture where our group deeply cares for each other and everyone strives to better themselves every day. I would highly recommend the LeaderSharp team and we are grateful for all of their help over the years.

As a new company, LeaderSharp skillfully guided us through the development of a mission statement and a set of corporate values that our workforce could buy into. They helped our leadership group come together as a team and start working effectively with open and honest communication. They assisted with documenting our five-year strategic plan and then helped us create focused shorter term goals and objectives for each department to ensure that the company was on track to achieve longer term success. I can highly recommend the LeaderSharp team to help your company achieve its corporate objectives.

I have had the pleasure of being coached by Lisa from LeaderSharp and also working with others from the organization. Lisa's coaching has helped me navigate complicated moments in my career - including my return to work after maternity leave, moving into higher profile and more challenging role, and upping my performance as expectations and environments shifted. Through it all, I felt deeply cared for, like I was being connected to resources, books and articles that helped me reflect and grow, and challenged to let go of old stories about myself that were no longer serving me. I feel the identity work Lisa helped me with has been a game changer -- not only because it allowed me to up my game at work, but because it allowed me to more joyful, authentic and self-authoring in all elements of my life.

As one of the executive coaches I have had in my professional career, Chris’s contribution to my leadership development has been transformational. Within just one short year of working with Chris, my self-awareness has increased significantly. As a result, I have been able to gradually recognize and remove, the various colored glasses through which I saw the world around me. Chris has instilled in me a genuine desire to become an even better leader and a genuine desire to create even better business results. I found Chris’s approach to be natural and authentic. He is a master at building buy-in to the changes one must consider for themselves, by getting one to generate the ideas for change, from within. I highly recommend Chris as an executive coach to any high potential leader, committed to taking their game to the next level.

Frequently Asked Questions

The program is designed exclusively for intact teams and work groups. The Five Behaviors® of a Cohesive Team harnesses the power of Everything DiSC® and the clarity and simplicity of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team™ Model.

It all starts with a team self-assessment, which measures how the team is performing in five areas: Trust, Conflict, Commitment, Accountability, and Results. Powered by Everything DiSC®, each individual on the team will also identify their own personality style and their team members’ styles, based on the DiSC model: D: Dominance i: Influence, S: Steadiness, and C: Conscientiousness.

 

Following the assessment, participants receive a personalized report that deepens their understanding of themselves and their team members. Participants will discover their team dynamic and performance, enabling them to move forward with an action plan for improvements.

At LeaderSharp Group, we are passionate about leadership development. We recognize that developing a cohesive team can take time and effort. However, The Five Behaviors® is a catalyst for rapid behavior change that is sustainable, inspiring other colleagues to develop team-building and communication skills.
