How to tame your team monsters!
summary
Five people on one team map to recurring roles — the unavailable princess, the indecisive chameleon, the know-it-all baby, the inflexible stick and the oracle — then use practical fixes: short team-building sessions, structured listening, direct questions to quiet developers, and testing designer sketches with quick iterations. Communication-focused changes make the team more transparent and give people ownership; after applying these tools the group reports more openness, more positive feedback, and measurable improvement toward high performance.
