When the “real meeting” happens after the meeting…

We've all been there (likely on all sides of this story):

People nod along in the team meeting.

No one pushes back.

A decision gets made.

Then, moments later, Slack lights up with doubts, hallway chats surface all the real concerns, and suddenly progress slows.

This week’s episode is about those team patterns we all know are hurting us and why still so many teams get stuck in them.

Spoiler: it’s not about bad people (yes, that co-worker is not actually the problem!). It’s about predictable dysfunctions most teams naturally fall into.

Ramona walks you through the 5 core dysfunctions that get in the way of a team's performance and shows you how to shift your team from artificial consensus and siloed execution to real trust, fierce conversations, shared accountability, and actual collective results.

If your team is smart, capable, but somehow still… not quite at its best, then this is the episode you’ve been looking for.

What we’ll talk about:

- Why “being nice” in meetings might be killing creativity and clarity

- The true cost of avoiding conflict (and how to mine it productively)

- How peer-to-peer accountability beats top-down micromanagement

- What high-performing teams actually do differently and how to get started

She also shares how the Five Behaviors® assessment and workshop help teams identify what’s holding them back and provides a structured, practical path toward higher performance.
