Norming, storming, performing. Why long lived teams are high performant, according to Bruce W. Tuckman

Norming, storming, performing. Why long lived teams are high performant, according to Bruce W. Tuckman

I’ve been hearing a lot of people talking about stages in teams development – forming, storming, norming and performing, so I jumped into figuring out (1) where this theory is coming from and (2) how valid it is today in connection to agile teams.

The originator of the theory is Bruce W. Tuckman, who wrote a study in 1965 – Developmental Sequence in Small Groups, Psychological Bulletin, Vol. 63,…

Taking over a team — part II

I find the basic Tuckman stages of team development a helpful tool in thinking about teams. This article takes it a step further and talks about what support teams need at each stage.

Love Lingers Here: Intimate Enduring Relationships X: Forming A Relationship

Love Lingers Here: Intimate Enduring Relationships X: Forming A Relationship

As we move beyond the myths of couples living happily ever after in a life of tranquility and stability to the realities of complex, changing relationships, we discover both profound and chaotic change and some patterning and continuity in the changes that do occur. In general, we find that couples move through four overall stages of development, the initial stage being defined as “forming,” and…

Leadership hack 022 - it's OK, teams change

Leadership hack 022 – it’s OK, teams change

Teams are complex and dynamic systems (see here).  One day a team can be cooking on gas, building great products that customers value and enjoy, on other days it can feel that the team is stuck in a quagmire of interpersonal conflict and confusion.   Teams also change over time, a team that has just got together will be very different from the same team after a year.

I have found it helpful to…

I forgot!

I want to add an idea to these beginnings of the Might Nein’s development!

There is a theory in group therapy, it is a stage development model of groups! All groups! It is (more or less) as follows:

Forming - feel each other out, not really wanting to step on toes, figure out why you came in the first place

Storming - CONFLICT

Norming - Coming back together and figuring out where everyone fits and what the rules are together

Performing - Doing your group task in sync

Adjourning - Finishing everything up, and returning to the world at large

Now, there’s a lot more to these stages, and you can go to this link to learn more!

In any case, the Mighty Nein are moving from the forming stage to the storming stage, and I’m thrilled to see it!

Tuckman and Group Development: Laurent Maas

22nd January 2018

Looking back over the last couple of weeks I do believe that this group is slowly approaching the 2nd stage of Tuckman’s Group development theory. In the first stage of “Forming “, the members start to become accustomed to each other and their relative tasks. I do think that this process occurred during the class exercises as they were an effective way for members to determine their role in the group. Specifically, during the egg experiment, some members of the group were more likely to coordinate the group while others were more inclined to execute the task or examine the details. As a group, we have already approached the “Storming” Stage. As we start to commit to more specific ideas for the exhibition the role of the different group members starts to become clearer which might, in turn, cause minor conflicts within the group.  This week we are required to commit to an idea as a group. Obviously, there might be some ideas that will be more appealing to some members of a group which in turn might cause some conflict, as described by Tuckman. Once the group commits to an idea it will be easy to approach the "Norming" stage as I noticed that group members are already willing to compromise on and combine their ideas and beliefs for the well-being of the group. Roles within the group will become more apparent which in turn enhances Productivity.
