The Work Is Never Done: Continuing education, stronger teams, and our first OTC Book Club pick: The Five Dysfunctions of a Team
At some point, most business owners and teams hit a plateau.
Not because they stop working—but because they stop learning.
The reality is simple: growth isn’t something you achieve once. It’s something you commit to continuously.
At this Off The Clock meeting at The Racketeer, we’re focusing on continuing education—for both business owners and the people they lead. What does it actually look like to build a team that improves over time? How do you create a culture where learning isn’t forced, but expected?
This conversation also marks the launch of our OTC Book Club.
We’re kicking things off with The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lencioni—a book that breaks down some of the most common reasons teams struggle: lack of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability, and inattention to results.
We’ll use this framework to guide the discussion and open up real conversations around what’s working, what’s not, and where teams tend to break down.
As always, this isn’t a lecture. It’s a room full of business owners, leaders, and professionals sharing real experiences, perspectives, and ideas you can actually apply.
If you’re serious about improving your team, your leadership, and the way your business operates—this is a conversation worth being in.
