Orientation (Forming) –
This is simply the bringing together of a group of individuals. At this stage, members are:
• Moderately eager
• Have generally positive expectations
• Have some anxiety about why they are there and what it all means
• Have some anxiety about other members such as who they are and what they are like
During orientation,
How to approach Goals, and what skills are needed.
The length of this stage will depend on how clearly the task is defined.
This is an important stage because it serves to clarify the team's mission and bond team members.
Teams that pay attention to building the relationships as well as focusing on the task successful
outcome.
Stages of Team DevelopmentStages of Team Development
Dissatisfaction (Storming)
This stage is characterized by:
• argument
• conflict
• a dip in morale
It results from differences between initial expectations and the reality of the situation as
perceived by the members. Members may have varying opinions of what the group was to do
and how to accomplish it. Members are also beginning to confront the differences in their
personalities and values, a condition that is present anytime strangers meet. Members may
feel anger or frustration with the task or with other members or may even resent the
presence of formal leadership.
Generally, the dissatisfaction stage is relatively short. Some groups, however, may become
stuck in this stage and continue to be both demoralized and relatively unproductive. In the
worst cases, some groups never emerge from this stage and, if possible, disband in
frustration.
Stages of Team DevelopmentStages of Team Development
Resolution (Norming)
This stage in the group's development involves the:
• Resolving of issues
• Setting up group processes
• Setting of group policies, procedures, and values
• Increasing production
Members are now resolving differences and clarifying the mission and roles.
Members are less dissatisfied as in the previous stage because they are now learning more
about each other and how they will work together.
They are making progress toward their goals. They are developing tools to help them work
better together such as a problem solving process, a code of conduct, a set of team values,
and measurement indicators.
Member attitudes are characterized by decreasing animosities toward other members; feelings
of cohesion, mutual respect, harmony, and trust; and a feeling of pleasure in accomplishing
tasks. The work is characterized by slowly increasing production as skills develop. The group
is developing into a team.
Stages of Team DevelopmentStages of Team Development
Production (Performing)
The team is accomplishing work effectively.
Production is high and the climate is positive.
Member attitudes are characterized by positive feelings and eagerness to be part of
the team.
Members are confident about the outcome, enjoy open communication, exhibit high
energy, and disagreement is welcome and handled without emotional conflict.
Although work is being accomplished through all the stages, this stage reflects the
work being accomplished most effectively.
Stages of Team DevelopmentStages of Team Development
Termination
In the case of temporary teams such as task forces, design teams, and problem
solving teams, a fifth stage reflects the ending of the process.
Depending on the team's success in accomplishing its task and how strongly the
members have bonded, this stage may reflect either a sense of loss or relief. When
a team ends, time should be spent addressing how it should be done to properly
recognize the team's accomplishments.
