Any conflicts that cannot be resolved among the group members will be forwarded to the course instructor for resolution.

Team means just that we work together and each give our contribution to the work.…

A successful team is committed to success, building confidence in the group and focus on the goal. Integration is important part of group building, and a key element for new members to develop.…
To be an effective group, three conditions need to be present: “mutual trust among members, a sense of group identity (a feeling among members that they belong to a unique and worthwhile group), and a sense of group efficacy (the belief that the team can perform well and that group members are more effective working together than apart)” (Druskat and Wolff, 2001). In the first group meeting, we developed a better understanding of our group when discussing all the details about this group project. Our fabulous group name is “Fab 4” with an inspiring motto “One for all, all for one, everybody having fun”. Found that all of us were motivated and sophisticated, we decided to complete all tasks together since that’s the most efficient way for us. To meet our expectation of being a helpful team, we all agreed to stay open to any ideas that can assist the foundation. Having a clear orientation, we gained more confident and mutual trust in each other.…
Many group projects fail when the group members are not on the same page. Some group members join a particular group for the members in the group and do not grasp the group’s goal. Some groups do not have much diversity, and the group members all have the same outlook without seeing flaws in their project. When the group members are not certain of the group’s goal the group often fails. The group will not accomplish their goal if some group members do not complete their tasks. When member join a group for social reasons and do not work toward the group’s goal they are not helping the group succeed.…

Groups are made u of individuals with varying personalities, backgrounds and ideas. For a group to work well a bond needs to be developed.

Organization members agree privately, as individuals, as to the nature of the situation or problem facing the organization. For example, members of the Abilene group agreed that they were enjoying themselves sitting in front of the fan, sipping lemonade, and playing dominoes. 2. Organization members agree privately, as individuals, as to the steps that would be required to cope with the situation or problem they face. For members of the Abilene group “more of the same” was a solution that would have adequately satisfied their individual and collective desires. 3. Organization members fail to accurately communicate their desires and/or beliefs to one another. In fact, they do just the opposite and thereby lead one another into misperceiving the collective reality. Each member of the Abilene group, for example, communicated inaccurate data to other members of the organization. The data, in effect, said, “Yeah, it’s a great idea. Let’s go to Abilene,” when in reality members of the organization individually and collectively preferred to stay in Coleman. 4. With such invalid and inaccurate information, organization members make collective decisions that lead them to take actions contrary to what they want to do, and thereby arrive at results that are counterproductive to the organization’s intent and purposes. Thus, the Abilene group went to Abilene when it preferred to do something else. 5. As a result of taking actions that are counterproductive, organization members…

Leading a group of people can often be wearisome, a difficult job, and yet many find the experience to be completely satisfying. Satisfaction is directly related to how well-functioning the group is and how to get a group of people to work together is both an art and science. On the other hand, outside the work place, people are a part of a group work which served a vast majority of wide diversity of things. For example, recreation sports teams, hobby groups, faith-based prayer groups, volunteering and charity organization. All these groups form a long common interest.
