What It Is

The Five Behaviors is a corporate team-development solution under Wiley, developed in collaboration with Patrick Lencioni. It is built around the Five Behaviors model for teams: trust, conflict, commitment, accountability, and results. Rather than a traditional platform of pre-recorded courses, it is an organizational development program centered on assessments, personalized reports, and facilitated training, with the goal of helping individuals and intact teams improve how they collaborate.

Core Programs and Delivery Format

The official site presents two main tracks: Personal Development, aimed at individuals and broader organizational culture building, helps employees learn how to collaborate effectively on any team and can support groups of up to 30 people; Team Development is designed for intact teams of 5–12 people, with a recommendation that the team has already worked together for at least 6 weeks. Both tracks begin with an assessment, followed by a personalized report, and are implemented through in-person or virtual training. Personal Development can be delivered by an internal corporate trainer using a facilitator kit, or by an authorized partner. Team Development is led by a trained Five Behaviors practitioner, can run for one or three days, and can be customized in terms of goals and duration.

Instructors, Content, and Certification

The program has a strong institutional background, backed by John Wiley & Sons and combined with Patrick Lencioni’s team model. Team Development also uses Everything DiSC, a research-validated personality tool, to help members understand individual styles and team dynamics. The official site menu includes Certification, but the captured page content does not explain certificate types, the certification process, or exam requirements, so it is not possible to confirm whether certificates are issued to learners.

Pricing, Pros, and Cons

Pricing is not disclosed in the main content and must be obtained through “Find a Partner” or consultation channels, so procurement transparency is only average. The advantages are a clear framework and a high degree of tool-based structure, including assessments, reports, discussions, action plans, and follow-up progress reports, making it suitable for corporate training and team interventions. The downside is that it functions more like a consulting-style training project, so it is not ideal for individuals looking to buy a single public course. Delivery quality will also depend heavily on the capability of the instructor, consultant, or internal trainer.

Who It’s For and Access from China

It is suitable for corporate HR teams, learning and development departments, management teams, cross-functional teams, and intact teams that want to improve trust, conflict management, and commitment to execution. The captured content does not clearly state information about access from China, payment methods, or local partners, so these remain unknown. If a Chinese-language alternative is needed, consider team collaboration programs from domestic corporate training providers, or related assessments and workshops such as Everything DiSC, Leadership Circle, and Gallup CliftonStrengths.
