Who: Many models exist. Lencioni’s “Five Dysfunctions of a Team” is popular, Tuckman’s stages are well-known.
Why: Entrepreneurs rarely succeed alone. Knowing how to build great teams is crucial.
When: Forming a new team, when an existing team is underperforming, or if team dynamics feel toxic.
How:

- Assess your team against a model to see where the gaps are.
- Design interventions (training, team-building, etc.) to address them.
