A group is defined as two or more individuals who interact and work together interdependently to achieve common objectives. Groups can be formal or informal, and include command, task, interest, and friendship groups. Effective teams outperform individuals, use employee talents better, are more flexible, and increase motivation. For a team to be successful, each member must have a clear role, the team goals must be clear, members must be accountable, and management must provide support.
The document discusses Bruce Tuckman's model of team development, which identifies 5 stages that teams generally progress through: Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing, and Adjourning.

Performance psychology aims to enhance athletic performance through understanding personality, motivation, and managing arousal. It involves counseling to create a positive experience and applying mental training techniques. Key areas of focus include understanding the participant and their traits/motivation, understanding the performance environment and group dynamics, enhancing performance through goal-setting and managing anxiety, and fostering personal development including maintaining balance.
This document provides an overview of individual and team dynamics. It discusses key aspects of individual dynamics including having a positive attitude. It also defines team dynamics and outlines Kurt Lewin's stages of team development: forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. Additionally, it identifies characteristics of effective teams such as clear goals, diversity, leadership, trust and respect, and managing conflict. Potential troubles with teams like social loafing are also examined.
The Four Cs Over the past several decades, as we have consulted wi.docxcherry686017
The Four Cs Over the past several decades, as we have consulted with teams and conducted research on team performance, we have come to the conclusion that there are four factors—four ―Cs—that must be understood and managed for teams to achieve superior performance.
Determinants of High-Performing Teams: The Four C’s
1. The context for the team
2. The composition of the team
3. The competencies of the team
4. The change management skills of the team
We will describe each of these factors briefly here, and will discuss them in more depth in the following chapters.
Context for the Team
Team context refers to the organizational environment in which the team must work. Understanding context, and how it influences team performance, requires an understanding of the answers to the following questions: 1. Is effective teamwork critical to accomplishing the goals desired by the organization? If so, are there measurable team performance goals around which we can organize a team? 2. Do my organization‘s reward systems, structure, and culture support teamwork? Experience has shown that the teamwork required to achieve high performance is much more important when the team must complete a complex task characterized by a high degree of interdependence. In addition, we have found that some organizations deploy formal organization structures or reward systems that become barriers to effective teamwork. For example, reward systems that provide strong individual incentives often create strong disincentives to engage in cooperative behavior within a work team. Unfortunately, many organizations, while paying lip service to the importance of teamwork, do little to encourage and support those who work in teams. Thus they do not foster a culture in which teams can succeed. High-performing teams manage context effectively by (1) establishing measurable team performance goals that are clear and compelling, (2) ensuring that team members understand that effective teamwork is critical to meeting those goals, (3) establishing reward systems that reward team performance (more than individual performance), (4) eliminating roadblocks to teamwork that formal organization structures might create, and (5) establishing an organizational culture that supports teamwork-oriented processes and behaviors (for example, everyone in the organization understands that success is predicated on effective collaboration; consequently, informal norms and processes support team-oriented behavior).
Composition of the Team
The composition of the team concerns the skills and attitudes of team members. You have to have the ―right people on the bus to make things happen as a team and achieve top performance.1 To effectively manage the composition of the team, team leaders must understand that team leadership and processes differ depending on the answers to the following questions: 1. To what extent do individual team members have the technical skills required to complete the task? 2 ...
This document discusses the characteristics of high performance teams. It states that high performance teams have a positive environment, collaborative problem-solving skills, and strong leadership. It breaks teams into three areas - a positive environment, problem-solving skills, and leadership. A positive environment promotes trust, respect, personal ownership of goals, and strong relationships. Effective problem-solving involves agreed upon processes, understanding different decision modes, conflict resolution, and continuous learning. Strong leadership includes maintaining vision, attending to team and members, and ensuring accountability. The document promotes further training through a Team Excellence Curriculum to build collaborative, effective, and efficient teams.
1. The document discusses group cohesion and its development over time. It defines cohesion as the attraction between group members and their commitment to the group as a whole.
2. Group cohesion develops through successive stages, from forming to storming to norming to performing, according to Tuckman's model of group development. Cohesion increases member satisfaction and group performance but can also increase conformity pressure.
3. The document also discusses goal setting, defining SMART goals as specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely targets that motivate individuals and aid performance.

This document discusses group and team dynamics in sports. It covers theories of group development including linear, cyclical, and pendular perspectives. It describes the importance of group structure including roles, norms, and modifying norms. It discusses creating effective team climate through social support, proximity, distinctiveness, and fairness. It also covers individual and team performance, social loafing, enhancing peer relationships and desire for group success. Finally, it discusses transition and disengagement for teams.
The document discusses groups and group dynamics. It defines groups as consisting of two or more people who see themselves as members working toward shared goals and interacting with one another. Group dynamics refers to the forces that emerge within a group as a result of member interaction and how this impacts the group's productivity and decision-making. High group cohesiveness and norms can increase productivity, while an absence of norms despite cohesiveness may decrease it. The stages of group development are also outlined.
Building an effective team isn't as simple as waving a magic wand, but it is also not an overly difficult process. Understanding the strengths and weaknesses of individuals, the role each person plays in a team environment and how they complement each other are all contributing factors.
In this webinar, you will learn the components of an effective team, the importance of team communication and the role of leadership.

A toxic combination of 15 years of low growth, and four decades of high inequality, has left Britain poorer and falling behind its peers. Productivity growth is weak and public investment is low, while wages today are no higher than they were before the financial crisis. Britain needs a new economic strategy to lift itself out of stagnation.
Scotland is in many ways a microcosm of this challenge. It has become a hub for creative industries, is home to several world-class universities and a thriving community of businesses – strengths that need to be harness and leveraged. But it also has high levels of deprivation, with homelessness reaching a record high and nearly half a million people living in very deep poverty last year. Scotland won’t be truly thriving unless it finds ways to ensure that all its inhabitants benefit from growth and investment. This is the central challenge facing policy makers both in Holyrood and Westminster.
What should a new national economic strategy for Scotland include? What would the pursuit of stronger economic growth mean for local, national and UK-wide policy makers? How will economic change affect the jobs we do, the places we live and the businesses we work for? And what are the prospects for cities like Glasgow, and nations like Scotland, in rising to these challenges?
