This week's topic is bout Groups and Teams. Diversity is an important consideration in the formation of groups. Ethnic, gender and culturally diverse groups typically make better decisions and have higher conflict levels. The two factors that influence group behavior are understood standards of behavior within a group and how effectively a group ensures adherence to norms of behavior. Group structure, group process, and task and maintenance behaviors have been identified as influencing group effectiveness. Teams can have any number of styles depending on their objectives and resources. Teams can be very good at performing work that is more complicated and more voluminous than one person can handle. When teams work well, they achieve process gains that allow them to make better decisions, develop and deliver better products and services, and create more engaged and committed employees. Disadvantages of teams include process losses, which may be due to the challenges of coordination, social loafing, and group conformity that can lead to groupthink and polarization.
