Pat Lencioni offers the following keynote topics that can be tailored to suit your unique needs:

Silos In his latest talk, Pat Lencioni tackles a prominent symptom of corporate frustration: silos, the invisible barriers that separate work teams, departments and divisions, causing people who are supposed to be on the same team to work against one another. According to Pat, silos — and the turf wars they enable — devastate organizations by wasting resources, killing productivity and jeopardizing results. Drawing from his book, Silos, Politics, and Turf Wars, Pat provides leaders with powerful advice on how to eliminate the structural obstacles that derail organizations. Urging leaders to provide a compelling context for their employees to work together, Pat’s model gives leaders a simple tool for enabling clarity, unity and alignment in their organizations.
Teams Anyone who has ever worked in an organization understands the frustration caused by office politics and dysfunctional teams. Unfortunately, there has never been a full understanding of the underlying reasons for these problems, and certainly no hope for a cure--until now. Based on his runaway best-seller, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, Pat Lencioni identifies the five root causes for team dysfunction and provides solutions to help make any team successful.
Meetings Based on his best-selling book, Death By Meeting, Pat Lencioni reveals some surprising truths about why we hate meetings, why we shouldn’t, and how to make them work. He debunks the myth that meetings are inherently bad and makes the case that they are, in fact, one of the most critical activities at the heart of a competitive organization. Using pointed and humorous case studies, Pat paints the picture of prototypically bad meetings, and presents a new, radical approach to meetings, one that transforms them from drudgery to focused, relevant and compelling business activities.
Organizational Health According to Pat Lencioni, organizational health is one of the last competitive advantages for sustainable success. He not only offers actionable advice on how to begin the process of building a healthy organization but also provides key insights on how to minimize confusion and politics and create an atmosphere of maximum clarity, where employee productivity can flourish.
Leadership A leader’s success hinges on a few simple behaviors - behaviors that require remarkable levels of discipline. Based on the model in his best-selling book, The Five Temptations of a CEO, Pat Lencioni captures the common pitfalls that all leaders face and suggests practical ways to overcome them..
