Group Development Model Stages
1) Forming
2) Storming
Decisions are more difficult to make
Team members vie for position as the
attempt to establish themselves in
relation to the other team
members and the leader
Cliques and factions form
Power struggles occur
Team needs to be focused on its goals
to avoid becoming distracted by
relationships and emotional
issues
Compromises may be required to
enable progress
Leaders are coaches
3) Norming
Agreement and consensus is formed
amongst the team
Responding well to facilitation from the leader
Roles and responsibilities are clear and
accepted
Big decisions are made by group agreement
Smaller decisions may be delegated to
individuals or small teams with the group
Commitment and unity are strong
Team may engage in fun and social
activities
General respect for the leader and some of the
leadership is more shared by the team
Leader facilitates and enables
4) Performing
The team is more strategically aware
Team has shared vision and is able to stand on its
own feet with no interference or participation from
the leader
The team makes decisions based on criteria
agreed with the leader
Team members ask for assistance from the
leader with personal or interpersonal development
Leader oversees and delegates
5) Adjourning
This represents the conclusion of the project
and the disengagement of the team.
Adjourning can be a difficult but rewarding
stage.
It may represent a sense of loss for those
that have established bonds with other
members of the team.
Members will reflect on the progress that the
team made from the beginning to the end.
It is important that the team and the leader
recognize each member for their individual
accomplishments, in addition to celebrating
the teams success.
