Topic': The Fighters and Side trackers
The Fighters Two or more persons have personality conflicts. Can divide the group into competitive factions. Interrupt politely but firmly. Stress points of agreement and minimize points of disagreement. Ask direct questions on the topic. Request that personalities be set aside.
The Sidetracker No drifting, just off the subject or agenda. Can cause confusion and waste group time. Take the blame for sidetracking her: "Something I said must have led you off the subject. This is what we should be discussing ... (restate point)."

- How could this breakdown in team function have been avoided?
- What approaches to resolving this breakdown are appropriate?
- What are some things that, if done, would make this team more functional and effective?
- What should you avoid when attempting to resolve this breakdown?
