Can you provide an analysis of the case study of the CEO who reorganized a broken executive team in the book "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team"?

In "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team", the CEO, Kathryn Peterson, is faced with a dysfunctional executive team at DecisionTech. Despite having more resources and a stronger board of directors than their competitors, the company is lagging in revenue due to the team's dysfunction. Peterson's approach to reorganizing the team is a key case study in the book. She prioritizes setting things right within the team, addressing the five dysfunctions identified by Lencioni: absence of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of accountability, and inattention to results. Through her leadership, she aims to transform the team into a cohesive unit that can drive the company's success.
