Untangling Team Dynamics: The 5 Dysfunctions and Their Impact on DEIB
Presenter(s): Keisha Jones, Director of Equity, NC Student Success Center and Associate Vice President, Student Affairs and Chief DEI, Davidson-Davie Community College
In this session, we delve into how the five dysfunctions of a team; absence of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability, and inattention to results, can hinder Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) efforts. Participants will explore the critical intersections between team dynamics and DEIB initiatives, uncovering how dysfunctions can perpetuate inequities and undermine inclusivity. Through real-world examples and interactive discussions, attendees will learn strategies to address these dysfunctions and foster a team culture that supports and amplifies DEIB values. This session is essential for leaders and team members who want to create high-performing, inclusive teams that drive positive change.
