when working in any organization, working in teams becomes inevitable. More often than not it is complex and difficult, however, with the right approach the problems can be resolved and team efforts towards a common goal can be achieved
" United we lead and Divided we fall...". This presentation teaches you the basic essence of Team Building, why it is Important and how can we make a strong and effective Team.
Very often we use the word team work in our organizational context without perhaps fully understanding what we mean by teamwork.
An effective team requires the participation of every member in order to be successful. When one person cannot accomplish a job alone and several individuals must cooperate to fulfill a mission, you need a team. The better the cooperation, communication and coordination among members, the more efficient the team.

How are the three characteristics of effective teams evident in each of Tuckman
Solution
Every team goes through the five stages of team development. First, some background on team
development. The first four stages of team growth were first developed by Bruce Wayne
Tuckman and published in 1965. His theory, called \"Tuckman\'s Stages\" was based on research
he conducted on team dynamics. He believed (as is a common belief today) that these stages are
inevitable in order for a team to grow to the point where they are functioning effectively together
and delivering high quality results. In 1977, Tuckman, jointly with Mary Ann Jensen, added a
fifth stage to the 4 stages: \"Adjourning.\" The adjourning stage is when the team is completing
the current project. They will be joining other teams and moving on to other work in the near
future. For a high performing team, the end of a project brings on feelings of sadness as the team
members have effectively become as one and now are going their separate ways.
The five stages:
This article provides background on each stage and an example of a team going through all five
stages.
Stage 1: Forming
The \"forming\" stage takes place when the team first meets each other. In this first meeting,
team members are introduced to each. They share information about their backgrounds, interests
and experience and form first impressions of each other. They learn about the project they will
be working on, discuss the project\'s objectives/goals and start to think about what role they will
play on the project team. They are not yet working on the project. They are, effectively, \"feeling
each other out\" and finding their way around how they might work together.
During this initial stage of team growth, it is important for the team leader to be very clear about
team goals and provide clear direction regarding the project. The team leader should ensure that
all of the members are involved in determining team roles and responsibilities and should work
with the team to help them establish how they will work together (\"team norms\".) The team is
dependent on the team leader to guide them.
Stage 2: Storming
As the team begins to work together, they move into the \"storming\" stage. This stage is not
avoidable; every team - most especially a new team who has never worked together before - goes
through this part of developing as a team. In this stage, the team members compete with each
other for status and for acceptance of their ideas. They have different opinions on what should be
done and how it should be done - which causes conflict within the team. As they go progress
through this stage, with the guidance of the team leader, they learn how to solve problems
together, function both independently and together as a team, and settle into roles and
responsibilities on the team. For team members who do not like conflict, this is a difficult stage
to go through.
The team leader needs to be adept at facilitating the team throu.
Collaboration is a word that belongsin the same warm fuzz.docxclarebernice
C
ollaboration is a word that belongs
in the same "warm fuzzy feelings"
list as love, peace, and healthy
eating. T h e decision to collaborate on a
project instantly creates visions of
heightened creativity, enlightened
cooperation, and stunning results. T h e
phrase "Let's collaborate on this" does not
magically lead to a successful outcome,
however. T h e Chicago Cubs prove that
just because a group of highly talented
people gets together in a team does not
mean it can perform well.
Most effective groups, teams, or
committees go through four separate stages
before achieving effective collaboration. In
1965, psychologist Bruce Tuckman coined
an unforgettable mnemonic for this
process: forming, storming, norming, and
performing. Groups must progress through
the first three stages of development to
successfully achieve stage four. Whether
you are a group leader or simply a
participant, your awareness of these four
essential stages of tasks and expectations
will help propel your collaborative efforts
from an "oh well, maybe next season"
experience to a successful venture with
fabulous results.
F O R M I N G is the first stage of group
development. This is an orientation stage
that can be compared to a first date. On a
first date, relationships are polite and
reserved. You are trying to get to know each
other, trying to decide if this is a
relationship you want to continue. Caution,
confusion, and courtesy are dominant.
Members of your newly formed
committee must also get to know each
other. Together you must decide on the
purpose and structure of the group and
your roles within that structure. Some
questions you might ask during this time
include, "Who are these other people?
W h a t is expected of me? W h o is going to
lead? W h a t is supposed to happen?" Even
if you have worked together with other
group members for years, forming a new

team requires this orientation period to
establish goals and procedures.
This forming stage is not the time to
expect free and open discussions or to
create a consensus. In the beginning,
fostering trust, encouraging relationship
building, and clarifying purposes and
expectations take precedence over making
decisions or taking action.
If you are a committee chair, you
play a very important role during this
period. Group members will more likely
interact directly with you rather than
with other members. You need to direct
the team clearly by establishing clear
objectives, explaining task requirements,
and generating a commitment to
common goals. You should also
encourage equal participation among
team members.
This first stage is usually rather short.
Often it can be accomplished in the first
committee meeting. Whether you are a
leader or just a member, you can help the
group progress by focusing on activities that
will build a positive working relationship.

TEAM BUILDING
Group: A collection of two or more interacting individuals with a stable pattern of relationships among them, who share common goals and who perceive themselves as being a group.
Essentials of a groupSocial interactionStable structureCommon interestsPerceive themselves as part of group
Team: A team is a small number of people with complementary skills who are committed to a common purpose, performance goals, and approach for which they hold themselves mutually accountable.
This definition highlights the essentials of a team or in other words the team basics. Here the focus or emphasis is on three characteristics – small number, complementary skills and commitment. These are what basically differentiates a team from a group and makes a team something much more productive and result oriented than a group. We shall analyze them:Small number – five to ten peopleComplementary skills – appropriate balance or mix of skills and traitsCommitment to a common purpose and performance goals – specific performance goals are an integral part of the purpose.Commitment to a common approach – team members must agree on who will do a particular job & develop a common approach.Mutual accountability – at its core, team accountability is about the sincere promises we make to others & ourselves – commitment & trust.

2. Introduction
Team building is a collective term for various
types of activities used to enhance social relations
and define roles within teams, often involving
collaborative tasks.
Many team building exercises are intended to find
and address interpersonal problems within the
group
3. The formal definition of team-building includes
the following:
• Goal setting: Aligning around goals
• Interpersonal-relationship management:
Building effective working relationships
• Role clarification: Reducing team members’
role ambiguity
• Problem solving: Finding solutions to team
problems

5. Lifting a log is used as a team building exercise in the
US military.

7. Stages of Team Building
Psychologist Bruce Tuckman first came up with
the memorable phrase "forming, storming,
norming, and performing" in his 1965 article,
"Developmental Sequence in Small Groups." He
used it to describe the path that most teams follow
on their way to high performance. Later, he added a
fifth stage, "adjourning" (which is sometimes
known as "mourning").
9. In this stage, most team members are positive and polite.
Some are anxious, as they haven't fully understood what
work the team will do. Others are simply excited about the
task ahead.
As leader, you play a dominant role at this stage, because
team members' roles and responsibilities aren't clear.
This stage can last for some time, as people start to work
together, and as they make an effort to get to know their
new colleagues.
10.
11. Next, the team moves into the storming phase, where
people start to push against the boundaries established
in the forming stage. This is the stage where many
teams fail.
Storming often starts where there is a conflict between
team members' natural working styles. People may
work in different ways for all sorts of reasons but, if
differing working styles cause unforeseen problems,
they may become frustrated.
12.
13. Gradually, the team moves into the norming stage. This is
when people start to resolve their differences, appreciate
colleagues' strengths, and respect your authority as a leader.
Now that your team members know one another better, they
may socialize together, and they are able to ask one another for
help and provide constructive feedback. People develop a
stronger commitment to the team goal, and you start to see
good progress towards it.
There is often a prolonged overlap between storming and
norming, because, as new tasks come up, the team may lapse
back into behavior from the storming stage.
15. The team reaches the performing stage, when hard
work leads, without friction, to the achievement of
the team's goal. The structures and processes that
you have set up support this well.
It feels easy to be part of the team at this stage,
and people who join or leave won't disrupt
performance.
16.
17. Many teams will reach this stage eventually. For
example, project teams exist for only a fixed
period, and even permanent teams may be
disbanded through organizational restructuring.
Team members who like routine, or who have
developed close working relationships with
colleagues, may find this stage difficult,
particularly if their future now looks uncertain.
