14. The Challenge of Team Development FORMING - establishing task and its demands; anxiety and uncertainty generate unhealthy stress STORMING - difference of opinion and method become apparent & often lead to conflict. Over stress is often experienced but can be best time for learning to work together if differences are faced, accepted and valued. NORMING - people agree way of working together on tasks. Usually healthy stress is generated. PERFORMING - builds on previous stages. Team members are likely to be in the Peaks , producing work of a high quality.

16. Important Observations A team will not be fully effective unless it reaches the stage of performing/interdependence. Many teams accept storming as a normal way of operating, while a number of teams may never get beyond forming. Unless the process of norming is fully completed, teams may degenerate into storming. The amount of time taken to complete the cycle will vary tremendously between teams. Many factors determine how quickly a team will evolve towards effectiveness including: its size, geographical spread, frequency and duration of meetings, synergy of team types, stability of team membership, external influences and time pressures and the nature of its activities. Effective Communication is key!!

17. Forming Uncertainty about roles, looking outside for guidance. Storming Growing confidence in team, rejecting outside authority. Norming Concern about being different, wanting to be part of team. Performing Concern with getting the job done. General Observations Some attempt to define the job to be done. Team members resist the task demands. There is an open exchange of views about the team s problems. Resources are allocated efficiently and processes are in place to ensure that the final objective is achieved. Content Issues Team members look outside for guidance and direction. Team members deny the task and look for the reasons not to do it. The team starts to set up the procedures to deal with the task. The team is able to solve problems. Process Issues People feel anxious and are unsure of their roles. Most look to a leader or coordinator for guidance. People still feel uncertain and try to express their individuality. Concerns arise about the team hierarchy. People ignore individual differences and team members are more accepting of one another. People share a common focus, communicate effectively and become more efficient and flexible as a result. Feelings Issues 2/21/2025 17
