WEEK 5 DISCUSSION
Part 1:
Post a Response
We have
all worked in a group or team at some point in our careers. A team is brought
together to achieve a common goal. The team needs to have members who have
complementary skills and who are committed to a common purpose to achieve
performance goals. However, teams don’t move immediately toward performing, but
instead evolve over time. There are five stages of group and team development.
Forming
– Getting oriented and getting acquainted. High degree of uncertainty as
members as they try to figure out who is in charge.
Storming
– Personalities start to emerge, along with roles and conflicts within the
group.
Norming
– In the third stage conflicts are resolved, relationships developed, harmony
and unity surfaces.
Performing
– The members concentrate on solving problems and completing the assigned task.
Adjourning
– Members prepare to disband. Some members may be reassigned, terminated from
the group or the group is resolved.
Think
about a time when you joined a new group . . . it could be at work, in a family
setting or with a social group.
Which
of the five stages was the most challenging for the group to work through, and
why?
How
might you have helped the group work through that stage differently based upon
what you know now about the five stages of group and team development?
