Segment 1: A Different Kind of Leadership: Effective team leaders encourage everyone to participate on an equal basis Segment 2: The Decision-Making Environment: A work group entrusted with a decision cannot allow itself to avoid its responsibility, but must stay together and work through its differences. Segment 3: An Assumption of Equality: One person, one vote is the operating rule for effective teams. Every idea is heard without judgement or comment, every idea has equal value.

Segment 5: Diversity and Inclusion: Quality decisions depends on tapping the diversity of experience present in a group.
