5 Dysfunctions of a Team

  • Absence of trust – not sharing ideas, afraid to speak up
  • Trust other people, friction is okay, talk about your ideas, overall trust, you need all sides of an issue- TRUST TEAMMATES AND COMMUNICATE
  • Fear of Conflict
  • Lack of Commitment
  • Avoiding accountability
  • Inattention to results

 

Successful Team

  • Teammates trust one another
  • Everyone expresses opinions about ideas
  • We might not reach a consensus, but everyone should give it their all
  • Hold one another accountable for delivery

 

Publicize Goals – hold accountable

Large Calendar

Team meeting – before and after, what did we accomplish

Focus on achieving collective results! Not your own goals, but the teams goals!

 

Innovators DNA

Questioning – defines problem, come up with things to observe and helps you set up a good experiment

Observing – Looking for irregularities

Networking – Exchange ideas

Associating (Brainstorming) – What solutions can we think of? How can we solve this? Ask more questions!!!

Experimenting – Try things! Keep asking questions! This is a cycle!

 

Tools

Question Storming – No solutions, no ideas; instead questions relating to problem!

5 Whys – Ask why five times, and it gets you to a deeper understanding of the problem

 

Arduino

Microcontroller – does not require as much programming, does one thing really well, C, C++, Python, 4 switches, simple to program with 13 inputs
