Teamwork Makes The Dream Work

Recall what you learned this week about the five stages of group development and team performance. With that in mind, respond to the following:

  • Describe one workplace scenario in which understanding of these five stages could have helped you work more effectively with a team. Provide a rationale for your response.
  • Reflect on your teamwork experience and share the good, bad, and tolerable characteristics of being a team member.

Note: Use information from your readings (Chapters 7, 8, and The Forgotten Group Member Case) and/or other outside research to support your responses.
