The document discusses team cohesion and its importance for effective team functioning. It notes that teams must share a commitment to their goals in order to be successful. The author's social problem research project group had to combine two subgroups with different interests into one, but they were able to focus on their overall goal of generating commitment to soaring above stigmas related to ADHD. They have high team functioning due to strong cohesion, understanding their main goal and splitting tasks while still working together cohesively. Their group has both task cohesion through a shared drive to accomplish goals, and social cohesion through similarity in member attitudes.

The document discusses groups, teams, and the difference between them. It defines a group as an assemblage of people who work together to achieve a common goal, while a team is a group that is collectively accountable for achieving a goal within a set time period. The key difference is that teams have interdependent members who share responsibility for outcomes, while groups have independent members who are individually accountable. The document also outlines stages of group development and provides examples of groups and teams.Group and Team

Cohesion and DevelopmentErin Bosman

This document discusses the relationship between task cohesion and group motivation. It defines task cohesion as the dedication of group members to complete a goal that requires group effort. For a group to remain cohesive and on task, the motivation of members must be oriented toward the group's success rather than just individual success. The document reviews a study that found a significant relationship between constructs of group cohesion and motivation among female students in physical activity classes. It emphasizes how considering group motivation and task cohesion provided new insights for research on student motivation. The author reflects on applying these concepts to their own social problem research project group.Group dynamics

Groups are defined as two or more people who influence each other. There are two main types of groups: formal groups established by organizations, and informal groups formed by members. Formal groups include command, task, and project groups. Informal groups include friendship and interest groups.
Groups go through stages of development including mutual acceptance, communication and decision making, and motivation and productivity. Group performance is influenced by factors like composition, size, norms, and cohesiveness. High performing groups develop synergy where performance exceeds individual contributions. Small groups have frequent interactions while large groups have more limited interactions and may break into sub-groups.Value system, team, group work in Professional Practices

Conflict ManagementJagadeeshBabu54

Conflict can arise from differences in opinions, interests, or objectives between two or more individuals or groups. It can occur at the individual, interpersonal, group, or organizational level. Common causes of conflict include poor communication, personal biases, differing viewpoints, role ambiguity, and scarce resources. To prevent or manage conflict, organizations can establish common goals, reduce interdependencies, promote trust and communication, improve coordination, exchange personnel between groups, and make use of superior authority when needed.Week 4 Small Groups

Groups are more than just a collection of individuals. They have structures like norms and roles that influence members. Groups also go through developmental phases from forming to adjourning. Being in a group can impact members by causing conformity, changing performance, and shaping their identity. People join groups both to accomplish tasks and satisfy social and emotional needs.Choreogroove, It's Your Move

The Cavaliers, considered the best team at the start of the season, have struggled to a 5-7 record with talk of players having bad body language and playing in the dark. LeBron James remains optimistic that the team can turn things around before their next game against Orlando, insisting that he will not allow his own negativity to spread to his teammates. The Raptors defeated the Cavaliers, leading at halftime and by as many as 19 points in the fourth quarter, with their fans in attendance cheering loudly for Toronto in the game's final minutes.

This document discusses key concepts related to groups and teams in organizational behavior. It defines the differences between groups and teams, noting that teams are formed for a limited time to work interdependently on tasks that generate synergy. Various types of teams are described, including problem-solving, self-managed, cross-functional, and virtual teams. Important factors for effective team formation and performance are also outlined, such as leadership, task clarity, roles, size, diversity, and trust-building. Specific challenges that can impact teams like social loafing, groupthink, and communication barriers are explained. Additional concepts covered include shared mental models, team learning, and collective efficacy.Group dynamics

There are several key factors that contribute to effective groups and teams. Groups are classified based on how they are formed (planned or emergent) and their purpose (primary, secondary, task-oriented). Successful teams and groups have clearly defined goals, the right composition and skills among members, established norms, and foundations like trust, leadership, and decision-making. The stages of group development include forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. Group dynamics and performance are influenced by characteristics such as size, composition, cohesiveness, and norms.Running head ANALYZING THE TEAMANALYZING THE TEAM3ANALY.docx

Analyzing the Team
The team formed is dance moms to provide designed costumes for the two teams, the Entertainers and the Legends. The team has some set values that are expected to be observed by all the members. These team values depict the uniqueness of the group, and offer it a team culture that it properly identifies with. Further, there is the emotional intelligence that is highly experienced on daily basis. Though it is difficult to comprehend the extent of its effects on potential or current relationships, emotional intelligence has a number of competencies that most people fail to recognize. Good leaders are known to handle their emotions well to bring a positive output effect to their team members (South University Online, 2014).
Furthermore, the paper will explain leadership communication aspect and how well it is likely to implicate whether positively or negatively on the team members. Communication is always considered a good aspect for success in the teams. In addition the paper will focus on the need and the process of empowering each of the team members to achieve what they are able at their best (Northouse, 2014). Empowering makes the team feels that their input within the team is always recognized and appreciated. Finally, there is the team design. The focus here will be on how effective the team design is, where improvements are needed on it and the teams stages of development (Amendolair, 2003).Team Values
The team encompasses certain values that they consider fundamental to the effectiveness and efficiency of the group. These values includes; listening to each other, knowledge and information sharing, decision making on the basis of reasoning as opposed to rank, a not-to-blame culture, no exhibition of ego, integrity, expansion of experience and improvement oriented workforce (Northouse, 2014).
Such core values, the leader is able to get every individual feedback on a given topic or project and further ensures that failure is the pain of the entire team just as success is the joy of all of them. Further, the leader is able to offer directional policy on consideration of all the views of the members as all are required to keenly listen to each other¡¯s opinion (Covey, 1990).
However, sometimes some of the team values may be detrimental to the success of the team such as basing decision making on reasoning other than as on rank. Sometimes the team leader may feel undermined. Besides, the team needs to include such values as honesty to ensure that no team member undermines the other. Finally the team leader practices value-based leadership as they uphold integrity and the general values of the team. Avoidance of distraction and maintenance of trust among the team members would lead to improved team values (UOregon.edu, 2009).Emotional Intelligence

Groups
Teamwork is crucial to the advancement of an organization, the collaboration and joint effort of every individual within the organization can significantly improve the overall outcomes of the organization. The formation of groups can help reduce the stress and distribute the workload within a healthcare organization to help certain individuals function as a group and focus on certain assignments to effectively deliver a high quality healthcare to the population. Effective communication and great team player skills are significantly important when considering the formation of a group, the leader of the group must understand the dynamics and be an effective communicator and understand what it takes to facilitate the group members (Marquis and Huston, 2015).
Four Stages of Group
The first stage is called the Forming stage, at this level the group rules are set and explained, interpersonal relationships are formed, and the culture of the group is established. The second stage to group formation is the Storming stage, at this level ideas are exchanged and members can agree and disagree effectively and collaborate together to achieve a set goal. The third stage is the Norming stage, at this stage, individual strength and weakness are recognized and appreciated, teamwork is a lot more evident at this level, the authority of the leader is recognized and improvements and adjustments will be made at this stage to the group dynamic (mindtools.com, 2012). The fourth and last stage of group formation is the Performing stage, at this stage all the effort and collaboration of the group becomes evident as the goal is met and work is accomplished. The team members are now comfortable with their duties and can independently work to contribute to the group as a whole (Marquis and Huston, 2015).
Group Description
In an attempt to reduce 30 day readmission in the heart failure population, we serve within my organization, we developed a clinical excellence team to address the issue and find a way to correct the situation. The team developed a program called the heart failure program which was initially tested in one care center and then finally introduced to the entire organization. Individuals from separate care centers were selected as team members, all who had prior leadership role within their department, therefore there was a little challenge to conclusively appoint a group leader due to the strong leadership personalities of every member. Once we got past this hurdle the group communication was effective and the set goal was achieved. Respect and exceptional communicating skills was one area that I can attest to that really propelled the excellent outcome of the group through all the stages. ?Currently the group is at its performing stage, the program is now introduced.Group dynamics

The document discusses group dynamics and factors that influence group performance. It defines what constitutes a group and reasons for joining groups. Key factors discussed include group cohesiveness, homogeneity, size, communication structure, roles, and the presence of others. Groups perform best when membership is stable, small in size (around 5 members), and slightly heterogeneous. The presence of others can increase or decrease performance depending on the individual and task difficulty.Group cohensiveness ppt by shantanu arora

Group cohesiveness refers to the bonding of group members to one another and the degree to which members are motivated to stay in the group. It develops through communication, shared interests, and a sense of "we-ness". Dimensions of cohesiveness include group unity, attraction between members, and commitment to working together towards shared goals. Factors that increase cohesiveness are threats from outside the group, difficulty entering the group, time spent together, previous successes, and similarities between members. Benefits include higher morale and productivity, while disadvantages can be personality clashes and struggles for power. Cohesiveness is strengthened by smaller groups, agreement on goals, and interdependence, and weakened by larger groups and individual rewards.GROUP FORMATION

Group cohesiveness refers to the ability of group members to think and act as one, even when not physically together. It involves supporting the group's decisions, even if a member personally disagrees. Key dimensions that contribute to cohesiveness include group unity, attraction between members, and commitment to teamwork. Factors that increase cohesiveness are threats to the group, difficulty entering the group, time spent together, smaller group size, past successes, and similarity of attitudes/values. Ways to increase cohesion include agreeing on goals, homogeneous membership, interactions among members, smaller size, and competition with other groups. Benefits include increased morale, productivity, communication, and conformity.More Related Content

Curt Lewin was the creator of the term "group dynamics", which is the study of groups and group processes. Group dynamics deals with the attitudes, behaviors, and interactions within and between groups. It examines how groups are formed, their structures, and the processes that govern their functioning. Key aspects of group dynamics include roles, norms, cohesion, size, and diversity.Respond to...?A group is two or more people gathered or classi.docx

A group is two or more people gathered or classified together for a common purpose. As well as a team being two or more people with a common purpose with roles that depend on each other and members complement each other.¡°Consider a group as a broader term that encompasses a wide range of activities and a team as a specific kind of formal group of individuals with not only a common purpose but also interdependent roles and complementary skills.¡± (Warrick, 2016, 7.1) A team may be a two or more people that have to rely on each other to get a project done. On the other hand, a group is a two or more people that have to work together to get the project done.? A few things that may influence a group or a team may be internal or external, for example, history of the team, the mission, goals, the culture, the purpose and task, the team members characteristics, and the status of the team.? There are a lot of things that a lead? may need to consider when trying to influence a group or a team. Being able to consider all of the above reasons when trying to motivate their team and to drive them to a successful project is important. If a leader is unable to motivate his or her team, it shows that they may not be cut out to be a leader. The leader has to be extremely vigilant in learning every team member in order to be able to relate to them and be able to make it personal. This way not only does the leader understand the follower, but the follower understands the leader. When the leader may ask for something, the follower will understand and will go above and beyond for the leader in order to help the leader get where they want to be.?

People often confuse groups and teams. Teams are different from groups in that team members depend on each other and share the work load. Groups on the other hand, consist of two or more individuals who interact to accomplish one goal (Warrick, 2016). Group communication can be more difficult because it involves more opinions and everyone¡¯s ideas and opinions matter. Responses and feedback must be reviewed by everyone in the group. This could prolong coming to an agreement. Differing personalities or people that don¡¯t care to be in group discussions could exhibit difficult behaviors and attitudes. In order to have effective outcomes, all group members have to be equally involved.
Teams consist of highly qualified members whose skills complement each other (Warrick, 2016). Team members are hand-picked by management and can work separately to accomplish the goal. Each team member is assigned a specific task that when combined with other members¡¯ tasks, complete the project. Team members hold themselves accountable for their specific roles. It is interesting to note that teams are groups as well, just smaller (Zeff & Higby, 2002). Managers often lead group initiativ.Group dynamics

Group dynamics refers to the behaviors and psychological processes within and between social groups. It was founded by Kurt Lewin to study group decision making, productivity, interaction, cohesiveness and communication. Group dynamics contains the interaction of forces among group members. Groups go through stages of forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. Groups are more than the sum of their parts and are influenced by leadership, deference to authority, and roles of group members. Groups shape individuals and society.Dr. Obumneke Amadi-Onuoha Scripts- 2

The document describes a team at the Centre for the Study of AIDS (CSA) in Pretoria. The CSA engages in transdisciplinary research to address health disparities, maintaining partnerships with communities. Behaviors that support collaboration include trust, shared vision, respect, mentorship, giving/receiving feedback, self-reflection, and shared language/goals. Lack of these behaviors could hinder the team's ability to achieve their scientific goals through issues like methodological biases and difficulty agreeing on objectives.Fostering collaboration and strengthening others 1

Collaboration and empowering team members is important for effective leadership. When leaders involve the entire team in problem-solving and decision making, it fosters trust and eliminates turf issues. Team members feel ownership over the work when they can contribute ideas and have their concerns heard. Empowering the team leads to collaborative problem solving and better implementation of plans, as the team worked together to develop the solutions. Overall, collaboration and strengthening the team are essential for building commitment to common goals and better organizational outcomes.Group and Team

Groups and teams are formed for different purposes. A group consists of two or more people who share common interests, objectives, and ongoing interaction. A work team is a group of people with complementary skills committed to a common mission and goals. There are four stages of group development: forming, storming, norming, and performing. Groups can be formal, based on the organizational structure, or informal based on friendships and interests. The main theories around group formation include propinquity, where proximity leads to affiliation, social systems theory looking at interrelated activities and interactions, balance theory based on shared attitudes and values, and exchange theory focused on rewarding interactions.Successful Collaboration and Team Dynamics

This document proposes a strategic messaging campaign for River Prairie, a development project in Altoona, Wisconsin. The campaign has three parts: 1) Sharing concept drawings on social media to generate interest and trust by showing renderings of planned amenities. 2) Using inclusive language like "we" in all posts to welcome community members. 3) Positioning River Prairie as "Your Destination for Every Occasion" to appeal to various niche markets with tailored ads. The goal is to improve awareness of River Prairie and attract target audiences by addressing current issues like a lack of engaging visuals and proper language usage in social media posts.Conflict Advice Paper

This summary provides the essential information from the document in 3 sentences:
The document describes a conflict that occurred between a student and a faculty member via email over scheduling a meeting to change the student's major. The conflict escalated due to miscommunications and both parties becoming increasingly aggressive in their emails. The student reflects on the conflict and takes responsibility for their role, apologizing and analyzing what went wrong in the communication between them.Communication Breakdown Paper
Communication Breakdown PaperErin Bosman
?
This document discusses a communication challenge at a university dining location where the author works as a student manager. Specifically, there is ineffective communication between supervisors, student managers, and regular employees regarding when formal vs casual communication is appropriate and responsibilities. The author analyzes this using Giddens' structuration theory, which explains how social structures emerge from individual actions. To address the problem, the author proposes an intervention plan involving assessing communication needs through employee reviews, implementing regular performance reviews and meetings, and evaluating the results over time to improve cooperation and effectiveness.Case Study Paper

MMG, a medical school, has seen declines in patient satisfaction and revenue. The CEO, Mike Taslow, hired Betty McDaniel as director of patient care to address this. Betty observed disorganization, poor communication between departments, and a lack of understanding from patients about MMG's procedures. There is a need for improved organization through better delegation, electronic patient files, and increased communication. A structure intervention like this combined with an educational campaign to inform patients and staff about MMG would help address the issues. Betty recommends a newsletter and website to communicate changes, address concerns, and help patients and staff understand MMG's goals and procedures.Harvard Business Review Article

The article discusses how leadership is increasingly about conversation due to new technologies and a new generation of consumers. Successful leaders focus on managing their organization and communicating new information to employees through face-to-face conversations that build intimacy, interactivity, inclusion and intentionality. Intimacy is built through trust, interactivity through dialogue, inclusion through sharing opinions, and intentionality through setting goals. The article relates to organizational communication by examining how personalized conversations between leaders and employees can enhance communication in organizations.Fitting Behaviors
Fitting BehaviorsErin Bosman
?
The document discusses behaviors that could be considered abnormal based on the "four D's" criteria of deviance, distress, dysfunction, and danger, but may not be viewed as abnormal by some. Two such behaviors mentioned are hyperactivity in children, which could be a sign of ADHD, and irregular sleep patterns in college students pulling all-nighters, which could indicate a sleep disorder or stress. While some may see these behaviors as normal for certain groups, it is important to consider whether they exhibit signs of the "four D's" that could point to an underlying psychological issue.Thomas Szasz and Schizophrenia
Thomas Szasz and SchizophreniaErin Bosman
?
The document discusses Thomas Szasz's view that mental illnesses like schizophrenia are myths, as well as the author's disagreement with this perspective. While the author understands Szasz's position, they believe mental disorders require symptoms of deviance, distress, dysfunction or danger over a significant period of time, which is supported by biological and cognitive research. The author argues schizophrenia could be better characterized as a group of related disorders rather than a single condition. Overall, the author disagrees with Szasz's stance that schizophrenia is not a real disorder and should instead be considered problems stemming from how differently behaving individuals are mistreated in society.Effect of White Noise on Off-Task Behaviors
Effect of White Noise on Off-Task BehaviorsErin Bosman
?
This study examined the effects of white noise and instrumental music on off-task behavior in two students with ADHD - one taking stimulant medication and one not. The dependent variable was off-task behavior such as talking off-topic or looking away from assignments. Researchers observed the students during independent work and recorded off-task behavior over 15-minute sessions under different conditions: baseline, white noise, and instrumental music. Preliminary results suggested white noise and music may reduce off-task behavior for both students compared to baseline. Further research is needed to better understand how auditory stimuli impact students with ADHD, both with and without medication.FinalPaper

This document describes a study that examined the relationship between parenting style and risk-taking behaviors. It provides background on previous research showing parenting style influences behaviors. The study aimed to create an inclusive definition of risk-taking behaviors and relate this to parenting styles of permissive, authoritative, and authoritarian based on Baumrind's definitions. The study hypothesized authoritative parenting would relate to lower risk-taking. A survey of 93 participants did not support this hypothesis and found parenting style did not strongly influence risk-taking behaviors.Career Exploration Reflection
Career Exploration ReflectionErin Bosman
?
The author explored the career of school counseling and found they enjoyed influencing and supporting students. They also liked collaborating with others on events and lesson plans. However, one concern was students not taking counselors seriously.
The author's current qualifications do not fully meet the requirements for a school counselor position, which include licensing and understanding of counseling ethics and standards.
To become licensed, the author plans to obtain a school counseling master's degree. They will also gain experience through volunteering, networking, and internships to strengthen their candidacy for school counseling careers.Earliest Memory Paper
Earliest Memory PaperErin Bosman
?
The document provides instructions for an assignment on infantile amnesia. Students are asked to collect data by interviewing classmates about their earliest memories and verifying them. They must then write a paper with four sections: an introduction defining infantile amnesia and why we can't remember early childhood, a methods section describing how data was collected, a results section summarizing the interviews, and a discussion concluding whether the memories were true or constructed and at what age infantile amnesia disappears.Conservation and Reversibility
Conservation and ReversibilityErin Bosman
?
The document discusses Jean Piaget's theories of conservation and reversibility in childhood development. Piaget found that children typically develop an understanding of conservation, such as maintaining the same amount of liquid in differently shaped containers, during the concrete operational stage from ages 7 to 11. The author conducted her own test with her 7-year-old niece, who was able to understand that two rows with the same number of items were equal, contrary to Piaget's findings. She attributes her niece's ability to her aunt's work as a teacher and her age placing her further in the concrete operational stage.Memories Developed from Infantile Amnesia
Memories Developed from Infantile AmnesiaErin Bosman
?
1) Infantile amnesia refers to the inability of adults to recall episodic memories from ages 2 to 4 years old due to the brain still developing, especially areas involved in memory storage like the hippocampus.
2) Memories from these young ages can sometimes be remembered through triggers like hearing stories, seeing photos, or watching home videos, which help individuals form memories of those times.
3) The examples provided show how memories from ages 2 to 4 tend to be pieced together from other sources rather than accurately recalled, while the memory from age 5 contained more accurate details, suggesting memory storage is more developed by that age.Psychoactive Drugs 
Psychoactive Drugs Erin Bosman
?
Psychoactive drugs are substances that alter mood, thought, or behavior. While some psychoactive drugs are used as medications to treat conditions like anxiety, insomnia, and depression, they can also negatively impact health when abused. Psychoactive drugs are divided into categories like anxiolytics, sedatives, antidepressants, and antipsychotics. Both short-term effects like mood swings and anxiety and long-term effects like depression and schizophrenia can result from psychoactive drug abuse. Psychoactive drugs may also contribute to the development of disorders like attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and bipolar disorder or worsen their symptoms. Fetal exposure to abused psychoactive drugs can cause conditions like fetal alcohol spectrum disorderSchool Counseling
School CounselingErin Bosman
?
School counselors help students with personal, academic, and career development from pre-K through 12th grade. They provide individual counseling, classroom guidance, and organize programs to meet various student needs. School counselors typically have a master's degree in counseling and required certification. They work full-time in schools, earning an average salary of $53,610 per year. Professional organizations like the American School Counselors Association and National Board for Certified Counselors provide support and resources for career development.The Vocational Process
The Vocational ProcessErin Bosman
?
The vocational process typically begins in a person's teenage years when they analyze their strengths, interests, and skills to form career goals. This process involves three periods - fantasy, tentative, and realistic. The author hypothesizes that an individual's final career choice will show an expansion of interests, skills, and high school jobs. To test this, the author interviews her mother Barbara about her vocational journey from childhood to her current role as a risk management leader. Barbara's interests evolved from playing with dolls to babysitting to various jobs, culminating in a 30-year career at Wells Fargo that allowed her to successfully raise a family. The author concludes Barbara's path followed the three periods and her career demonstrated an expansionGroup Space
Group SpaceErin Bosman
?
Groups often claim territory in public places by placing personal items like purses and sweatshirts to define their group space. Group space is a temporary spatial boundary that forms around interacting groups to serve as a barrier against unwanted intrusion. The concept of group space is most commonly seen in group-oriented places where people regularly interact with known others, such as parks, rather than individual or aggregate spaces. For example, the author's family brings chairs and coolers to claim group space while watching her brother-in-law play softball at the park with friends.Individualism and Collectivism
Individualism and CollectivismErin Bosman
?
This document discusses individualism and collectivism and how they relate to social identity. Individualism focuses on uniqueness of individuals while collectivism focuses on the group as a whole over individuals. People can exhibit traits of both and it depends on whether they are with close friends/family or in work/school groups. The author personally shows more individualism with close groups but collectivism in work/school where their goals may cooperate or not correlate with the group goals. Individualism and collectivism can vary per person and influence how included or excluded people feel in social groups.Team Cohesion

- 2. STRUCTURE AND PLURALISTIC IGNORANCE 2 Team Cohesion "Higher team function is linked with higher team cohesion. Based off this study, individuals with diverse levels of attachment anxiety and avoidance can potentially increase teams¡¯ achievements and quality of work, depending on the team¡¯s ability to ensure cohesiveness." (Lavy, Bareli, & Ein-Dor, 2015, pg. 46). To be successful as a group, teams must share a commitment to their goal or task. In order to be effective in their approach to the end goal or purpose of a group, the members must be united and be wiling to put the overall interest of the group above their own interests (Forsyth, 2014, pg.422-423). My social problem research project (SPRP) group has an end goal to generate commitment to soaring above stigmas surrounding learning disabilities, and more specifically soaring above stigmas surrounding Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). That's are overall task, and interest of the group. When we formed as a group, we had to combine two groups with two different interests together. The goals the two subgroups had in mind could not coordinate with each other easily. Because the group wanting to focus on ADHD was larger, the other group put the main interest of the group above their own interests. We have been able to continue as a group to focus on our overall project and wanting to help someone in the community, leading to our goal to generate commitment to soar above stigmas associated with ADHD. Being able to work cohesively together has definitely helped us to have higher team functioning. We are able to understand our main goal, and to split that up between group members. Even though we split tasks between

Our group has characteristics of task cohesion, a shared drive to accomplish our goals, and social cohesion between the majorities of our team, a factor that promotes attraction of the members to one another through similarity in attitudes (Forsyth, 2014, Pg. 423).
