1. Absence of trust within team members
	- A leader should be willing to display sincere vulnerability to encourage team 
	  members to open up.
	- Strive to create an environment in which team members are not afraid to say 
	  things like "I was wrong", "I made a mistake", "I need help", "I'm not sure",
	  "You're better than I am at that", and "I'm sorry".

2. Fear of conflict
	- Acknowledge that conflict is productive.
	- Holding back conflicts in meetings leads to back-stabbing later on.
	- Mine for conflict.
	- In the middle of a conflict, remind the participants that the conflict is good 
	   for the team.

3. Lack of commitment
	- Clarity is needed
		o Remove assumptions and ambiguities.
	- Consensus is not needed for the group to buy in to the idea.
	- You should not wait for the perfect information to commit to a decision.
		o Create a contingency plan, commit, execute, and change course if future 
		  information proves the decision to be incorrect.

4. Avoidance of accountability
	- There should be accountability directly among peers.
	- The leader must be willing to confront difficult issues.
	- Use meetings to perform accountability.
	
5. Inattention to results
	- Results have higher priority than individual or departmental needs.
	- Declare the goals publicly for clarity and accountablity.
