What is a team?
A group of people pooling theirs skills, talents, and
knowledge, with mutual support and resources, to
provide effective solutions to problems.

Why work in teams?


To share perspectives, learn from each other, discover
more about yourself and others, learn something new,
support each other, experiment, and have fun.
GROUP vs TEAM

Team is a part of a Group.

Team has more positive Synergy than


Group.

Team delivers more.

The Five Stages of Group Development
(Bruce Tuckman):
Forming
 Team building: define team & individual roles, develop
trust and communication
 Task: define the problem & strategy to solve it, identify
needed resources
Storming
 Conflicts arise, collaboration is low, members realize the
task is harder then they first imagined
 Diagnose conflicts: Find out if everyone agrees on goals,
roles & responsibilities. Try to identify the problem,
and work out a solution that meets everyone’s goals.
Norming
 Members accept the team, team ground rules, their roles,
and the individuality of their fellow members.
 Team members begin to cooperate, give constructive
feedback.
Performing
 Team members have gained insight into personal and team
processes, and have a better understanding of each other’s
strengths and weaknesses
 The group has developed strategies for avoiding or
resolving conflicts.
 Members feel a close connection to the team.

Adjourning or Reforming
 Bring closure to tasks
 Review group processes, make suggestions/plans for
improvement

FIVE ELEMENTS OF
COOPERATIVE LEARNING:
1. Positive interdependence:
Each person is responsible for a
different learning issue.
Each is responsible for sharing
information and teaching each
other.
4. Face-to-face interaction:
The team works together to
make a solution plan.
The team re-groups regularly to
review progress and reassess
goals.
3. Individual accountability:
 Each person: does research, writes up results for the
group.
4. Collaborative/social skills:
 The team reviews reports/progress together and edits each
other’s work.
 The team shares resources and ideas effectively.
 Cooperation, communication, trust, and effective
leadership are key.
5. Group processing:
 Assessment of group performance by the group.
 The team discusses what they have learned and what
problems still exist.
