How to Diagnose a Broken Team | Minisode 2


Listen Later

Is your team actually underperforming, or are they just fighting a broken system? Mamuna and Lola dive into the "detective work" required to identify if you have a personnel problem or a systemic failure before you make the mistake of swapping out the wrong people.


💡 We cover:

  • The "Output Trap": Why missing deadlines is often just a symptom of a much deeper, hidden issue.

  • Systemic vs. Personnel: How to distinguish between a team that can't work and a team that won't work.

  • The Root Cause Strategy: Why moving people to new teams rarely fixes the problem if the underlying environment is toxic or inefficient.

  • The Six-Month Test: How to spot recurring patterns that prove your team isn't the problem—your process is.
