The 5 Functions of a Team

How good and pleasant it is when brothers (and sisters) dwell in unity...For there the Lord has commanded the blessing, life forevermore. Psalm 133 is a scripture I stumble on often, perhaps because the Lord is clearly speaking to me. It's a reminder to us to always stay in unity with one another inthe body of Christ. It takes effort and constant maintenance. Unity is how a team functions at its highest level: each member of the team unit doing its part and completely trusting others to do theirs and vice versa.

I'll be speaking to our worship team the next several weeks on the 5 functions of a team. They are actually taken from Lencioni's book, "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team." But, I'm using the gift of optimism to turn it around a bit. The 5 functions are: trust, conflict, commitment, accountability, and results. I think we'll spread it out and cover each one seperately. Dwelling in unity is something every close to my heart. Looking forward to diving in!
