  11. Forming People initially seek to find their place in a group in relation to others. Each person is trying to answer the question “How do I belong to this group?’

  12. Storming • Who leads the team? • How is leadership exercised? At this stage, the team has to decide how it is going to operate. It becomes necessary to sort out personal relationships of power, influence, and leadership. Although the team leader/manager has specific authority, team members are constantly evaluating his/her behavior. The team is trying to answer the questions: Source: Tuckman and Jenson

  13. Norming The team begins to tackle its work. Members develop their capacity to handle problems creatively, flexibly, and effectively. Typically, the quality of communication improves, and team members respect each others’ contributions. The focus is on economy of effort and task effectiveness— consistency is established and objectives are clarified. Source: Tuckman and Jenson

  14. Performing The members of a fully established team develop rapport and closeness. Each members’ role is clearly identified, and each person’s contribution is distinctive. Team members also build open links with those outside of the team. The team’s contribution to the organization is clear, and it can gather the support and resources it needs. Source: Tuckman and Jenson

  15. Adjourning The adjourning stage is the wrap up stage for a team. This is the time where people feel a need for recognition and a sense of accomplishment. Teams must come to closure in a positive manner - including planning for what happens next. At this point, you as the facilitator will only coach the team upon request and must start to transfer ownership. It is important to give feedback and share feelings at this stage. Celebrate!

  16. A Few Lessons from Geese Flock facts: • As each bird flaps its wings, it creates an uplift for the bird following. By flying in a V formation, the whole flock adds 71% greater flying range than if it flew alone • When the lead goose gets tired, it rotates back into the formation and another goose flies at the point position • The geese in formation honk from behind to encourage those up front to keep up their speed
