Performance driven teams tend to be extremely synergistic, however, there can be barriers that inhibit a team. Some leaders may not be democratic, which then discourages engagement from members of the team. A positive culture can be ruined if conflict is not addressed early on with transparency. Unclear roles and responsibilities can make team members unsure of what they are an are not responsible for. A lack of trust can discourage members from being vulnerable, voicing their opinions and ideas and stifle collaboration. The diversity of each team member may not be valued, which decreases the amount of creative ideas and perspectives from members, which decreases the quantity and quality of results.
