Leadership
The Ideal Team Player
Lencioni’s model here is that strong team members share three virtues: they are humble, hungry, and smart about people. Told through his usual fable format, the book shows how the virtues interact and what happens when one is missing.
The practical payoff is in hiring and development. The model gives you concrete language for interviews and for coaching conversations that would otherwise stay vague.
Most useful for leaders who are actively building a team and want a clearer bar for who joins it.
