6. FORMING: The initial
group development
stage where the group
members are first
getting to know each
other, and they lay
down the foundations
for the group. It is a bit
of a honeymoon period
in the group’s
interaction.
FORMING
7. STORMING STORMING: The
friendly façade begins
to wear off and the
group may face
interpersonal issues
and conflicts. If not
controlled, open
hostility may occur.
The group is resisting
and testing
boundaries.
8. NORMING NORMING: The
begins to unify in this
stage. Much of the
resistance should be
gone and the group is
becoming more
comfortable with
each other.
9. PERFORMING PERFORMING: The
group should be at
the height of
productivity and the
only conflicts are
constructive and
necessary. The
group is functioning
as a cohesive unit.
10. ADJOURNING ADJOURNING: This
is the final stage.
The group is
wrapping up and
saying their
goodbyes. Members
should be
recognized for the
contribution to the
group.
