Group Development
Group Development Forming Norming Storming Norming May go back and forth through the model from here.
Forming What does this look like in ORL? Lots of uncertainty as the staff comes together. What is it we do? Who are you?  This leads to differing levels of commitment Communication is low level (favorite movies, etc.) Need the HD for direction What do we do? Provide direction (tell them what to do, training) Expectations (help get to norming) Goal Setting (this leads to greater commitment by involving the staff) Icebreaking (move past the favorite color stage)
Forming Yellows :  “How will I be a good staff member?” Greens :  “Why are we doing this in this way?” Blues :  “Who are you?  Who are you?  Who am I?” Reds :   “What can I do…right now?!?”
Norming What does this look like in ORL? Group gains confidence (they know what to do on duty, e.g.) Goals are clarified (the whys of what we do – confronting alcohol) are explained Interdependent relationships (cliques may form) Group achieves goals more effectively (they follow procedures) What do we do? Explain rationales Open discussion for how the staff will work consistently Provide open times for group to share ideas Work towards consensus Facilitate leadership opportunities for group members
Norming Yellow :  “Are we stable?  How do I contribute? What is my duty?” Greens :  “Why is this policy enforced like this?  What is the rationale?  Am I sure of the leadership? Am I good at this?” Blues :  “Does everyone here understand me?  Do I understand where everyone else is coming from?  Are we serving who we are supposed to be serving?” Reds :   “What can I do now?  This is fun…except when it isn’t….”
Storming What does this look like in ORL? Differences over roles and goals Inconsistency becomes an issue (Blues vs. Yellows; Reds and Greens get fed up) Uncertain about how to deal with issues because it is more complicated than it was ( a friend is in trouble, e.g.) Independent cliques have formed, perhaps around “party lines” Communication issues erupt.  Eruption could be an eruption of silence or mediated communication (AIM, Facebook, etc.) What do we do? Confront it head on, without blame. Team build based on the issues. Involve group more in decisions.  Storming does not equal group failure…it means it is growing. Define and redefine expectations Coach members through struggles with each other or you Seek commonality and point it out.
Storming Yellows :  “Everybody needs to know their role and get this done in the predetermined, agreed-upon manner. This group is failing.” Greens :  “Everyone else is incompetent and I can’t be expected to work with these people. This group is sub-par.” Blues :  “Why can’t we get along?” or “I do everything for everyone else and this is how I am repaid!  I miss the group the way it used to be.” Reds :   “What are the issues right now?  What’s your beef?  What’s your beef?  What can we do to fix this now?”
Norming What does this look like in ORL? Group gains confidence and acts appropriately Goals are clarified Interdependent relationships (cliques exist but are not polarized) Group achieves goals more effectively (programs are co-planned successfully, e.g.) What do we do? Provide open times for group to share ideas (they are ready to contribute from experience and intelligence) Work towards consensus on most issues Facilitate leadership opportunities for group members (find new challenges)
Norming Yellow :  “Good.  Now that the system is in place and everyone understands their duties, we can get our tasks accomplished. I feel like I belong here.” Greens :  “This is working for the time being and maybe this group can handle change if it comes up. This is an interesting and challenging place to work.” Blues :  “I’m glad that we had that bit of misunderstanding because our sense of who we are is stronger and now we all know how to talk to each other.  I like these people, I feel like I belong” Reds :   “Well, that’s done.  What’s next?
Performing What does this look like in ORL? Group takes responsibility for self and tasks (accountability) Effective leadership from all members  Group facilitates itself (agenda points may be contributed by the group) Group works to benefit the whole team (successful programs are shared) What do we do? Still seek to improve relationships and work Celebrate successes Test for better methods and processes
Performing Yellows :  “We are a well-ordered and well-maintained RESIDENCE LIFE MACHINE!!!” Greens :  “It appears that our goal is clear, our method for achieving the goal is sound, and our communication and readiness for change are intact. I have some ideas for how this could be better, though” Blues :  “I love you guys…WE DO GREAT WORK!!!  Make sure we all KIT” Reds :   “That was fun.  What’s next?”
STORMING?!?!?? Storming is feared for many reasons: Yellows :  Disrupts the chain or flow of the organization.  They are likely to avoid it because instability is bad and it is a reflection of not doing one’s duty. Greens :  It is non-productive and doesn’t seem like a logical or rational use of group time.  However, greens are the most likely to welcome storming and seek to replicate it frequently Blues :  People could get their feelings hurt and we may cease to be connected as a group.  They are likely to avoid it because conflict between people is destroying the reason for the group to exist. Reds :   It’s a lot of talk…no action…generally no fun.  However, Reds may seek to replicate to provide some action or something to do.
STORMING?!?!?? How to lead colors through it: Yellows :  Remind yellows of their duty to the group.  They will respond to this by being a good “second in command.” Greens :  Ask the greens for ideas on how to get through the conflict.  Also, explain the theory of development.  They may not believe it, but use of logical reasoning will help. Blues :  Explain to the blues that this will strengthen the bonds between people if they can get through it. Ask them to help “bridge the gaps” between people. Reds :  Do team-builders or active initiatives to illustrate the process.  Ask them for their perception of reality in the process and what they think needs to happen to “fix” the situation.
