  Employee engagement has been trending lower recently; low enough that fewer than one-third of employees feel engaged, enthusiastic, and energized by their work according to a recent survey by Gartner.  Unfortunately, the lower the engagement, the less likely it is for employees to contribute constructively to their organizations and stay long term. The Five Behaviors® model from Wiley, designed from Patrick Lencioni's best-selling book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, can help turn this low engagement around, as this program is designed to enhance team dynamics and foster a more collaborative and productive work environment. Here’s the framework:    1. Build trust.  2. Master conflict.  3. Achieve commitment.  4. Embrace accountability.  5. Focus on results. When put into action, this framework has been proven to aid in productivity, job satisfaction, and retention—therefore creating a culture of collaboration, next-level performance, and excellence.
