The document discusses group cohesiveness and its importance for effective group functioning. It defines group cohesiveness as the bonds linking group members to each other and the group as a whole. It identifies five stages of group development: forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. The dimensions of group cohesiveness are described as group unity, attraction, and teamwork. Key factors that contribute to cohesiveness include threat, competition, time together, previous successes, difficulty of entry, group size, and similarity of attitudes and values.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. Group
•A Group can be defined as a collection of individuals
working in face-to-face relationships to share
information and resources for a task to be achieved.
•The main function of a group is to exchange task-
related information and discuss task related issues.
3. Stages of Group Development
Forming- In the forming stage a lot of uncertainty
persists about the group’s purpose, structure and
leadership. They like to keep things simple and avoid
any controversy.
Storming- The storming stage is characterized by the
domination of few members, as a result of which
some members remain completely passive.
Norming- In the norming stage, group members
begin to resolve differences and clarify the purpose of
the group and roles of the group members.
Performing- The performing stage is marked by
interdependence in personal relations and problem
solving.
Adjourning- Adjourning involves the termination of
task behaviors and disengagement from relationships.
4. What is group cohesiveness?
Group cohesiveness is the ability to think and act 'as one' if
the group is physically together or not.
A group is said to be in a state of cohesion when its members possess
bonds linking them to one another and to the group as a whole.
According to Stephen P Robbins, “Group cohesiveness is
the degree to which members are attracted to each other
and are motivated to stay in the group.”
Cohesion grows
out of
communication
and common
interest
Builds group
identity
Creates
climate of
inclusion for all
members
6. Group unity
Many theorists believe that group cohesion
results from a deep sense of “we-ness” or
belonging to a group as a whole.
By becoming enthusiastically involved in the
efforts of their group and by recognizing the
similarities that exist among group members,
individuals tend to develop a close connection
with their group and its members.
7. Attraction
According to Hogg (1992), group cohesiveness
typically develops from a depersonalized
attraction to group members based on their status
as group members, rather than a personal
attraction based on specific relationships.
8. Team work
Some theorists stress that cohesion comes from
group members’ commitment to work together to
complete their shared tasks and accomplish their
collective goals.
Members of task-oriented groups typically exhibit
great interdependence and often possess
feelings of responsibility for the group’s
outcomes.
9. FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO GROUP COHESIVENESS
Threat &
Competition
COHESION
Time Together
Previous
Successes
Difficulty in
Entry
Group Size
Similarities of
attitudes and
values
10. 1. Threat & Competition
Whenever the common group goal is threatened,
cohesiveness increases.
Also, such cohesiveness increases the
importance of the goals.
When we fight for a goal, the goal gets the
highest priority.
Thus the threatening party will have less chance
of success when faced with a unified force.
11. 2. Difficulty in Entry
Some groups are not easy to join. The members
are very carefully selected and the selected
members feels a sense of pride and
accomplishment.
The more difficult it is to get into a group, the
more cohesive that group becomes.
The reason being that in exclusive and elite
groups the members are selected on the basis of
certain characteristics and these characteristics
being common to all add to the degree of liking
12. 3. Time Together
It is quite natural that the more time people
spend together, the more they will get to
know each other and more tendency there
will be to get closer to each other, thus
strengthening the degree of cohesiveness.
In an organizational setting, people who
work near each other are more likely to
spend more time together.
13. 4. Group Size
Since continuous and close interaction among
members is a fundamental necessity for
cohesiveness, it would be natural to assume that
large groups restrict the extent of communication
and interaction with each other, thus resulting in
reduction of degree of cohesiveness.
14. 5. Previous Success
When a group achieves a meaningful goal,
the cohesiveness of the group increases
because the success is shared by all the
members and each one feels responsible for
the achievement.
For example, when a sports team wins an
important game, every one in the team
congratulates every other member of the
15. 6. Similarity of Attitudes & Values
One of the strongest source of group
cohesiveness is the similarity in values, morals,
beliefs and code of conduct.
We enjoy the company of others who hold similar
opinions and characteristics as ourselves.
18. Disadvantages
Clash of personalities
Conflict of task
Breakdown in communication
Struggling for power
Frequent turnover of members
Disagreement
19. HOW TO INCREASE COHESION?
Make the group smaller.
Encourage agreement with group goals.
Increase time members spend together.
Increase group status and admission
difficultly.
Stimulate competition with other groups.
Give rewards to the group, not individuals.
Physically isolate the group.
20. HOW TO DECREASE COHESION?
Induce disagreement in group goals.
Increase membership heterogeneity.
Restrict interaction among members.
Increase group size.
Allocate reward to individuals rather than to a
group as a whole.
Remove physical isolation.
Introduce a dominating member
21. Conclusion
Group cohesion has been linked to a range of
positive and negative consequences.
People in cohesive groups are confronted with
powerful pressures to confirm to the group’s
goals, norms, and decisions.
Cohesiveness leads to the improvement in
productivity and efficiency of individuals as well
as groups.

wins championships” - Michael Jordon
If you want to go Fast, go alone. If you want to go
Far, go together.
Individually we are one drop but together, we are
