This document discusses avoiding conflicts in teams and achieving success. It contains the following key points: 1. Over 70% of business change fails due to a lack of strong leadership, poor understanding of team skills, and lack of focus on team dynamics. 2. Conflicts in teams often arise because members do not understand or appreciate behavioral differences or are confused about how the team operates. 3. Managing conflicts in a rational, balanced way is important for team success. Understanding psychological and functional preferences can help reduce conflicts between team members.
