Team members have to work their way through becoming coworkers that work in their full capacity from entire strangers. Only then can a team work to its fullest potential.

According to the model, teams go through each phase working their way through overcoming obstacles, learning to work together, and eventually hitting their goals. This model is known as the forming, storming, norming, and performing model (FSNP).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s now see what typically happens in each phase of the model.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forming Stage of Group Development<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first of Tuckman\u2019s stages of team development is the forming stage. The purpose of this phase is to create a team with clear structure, goals, direction, and roles. At this stage, teams are unsure of their purpose as they begin to form. They are excited, curious, and eager about their new journey.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this point, a team constitutes of mere strangers who have many questions. At the same time, they may be anxious wondering things like how well do they fit in or if they will live up to the expectations of their supervisor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forming is the stage where teams begin to address the problems and then propose suitable solutions. Members of the team decide on a task they want to work on and are usually highly positive about it. This stage also takes time since everyone on the team still has to get to know each other.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-196965 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Play-Well-with-the-Team.jpg\" alt=\"Teamwork\" width=\"950\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Play-Well-with-the-Team.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Play-Well-with-the-Team-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Play-Well-with-the-Team-768x404.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Play-Well-with-the-Team-100x53.jpg 100w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Play-Well-with-the-Team-700x368.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storming Stage of Group Development<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coming up to number two on the Tuckman ladder, we see the storming stage. Often the most dangerous phase of the model, the storming stage is directed by two main things: conflict and friction. In this stage, team members begin to question each other\u2019s way of working. They may also challenge the opted management and leadership style or they may question the entire mission of the team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this phase, the negative aspects of each member on the team are likely to show up. It is at this stage, members begin to feel they may not live up to the expectations of the team and the end result is frustration and anger from not being able to make progress.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disagreements and confusions result in slowing down progress. At this stage, most teams are likely to break up with some members refusing to join a team at all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Norming Stage of Group Development<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Number three on Tuckman\u2019s model of group development is the norming stage. It is at this stage that all the team members gradually start to work together effectively. At this stage, members begin to trust each other, establish harmony and accept each other\u2019s opinions despite their differences.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They also begin to appreciate one another\u2019s strengths, fill in the discrepancies they left, and feel comfortable sharing their ideas and thoughts. In addition, the team begins to accept criticism and use it constructively. With increased group cohesion, members enjoy being part of the team and working together. An increased willingness to share ideas or ask teammates for help is common at this stage.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Performing Stage of Group Development<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the 4th stage of team development, members perform to their full potential and work hard. With such determination and productivity, the team is highly likely to hit its target. Members feel satisfied with their progress and are confident in their abilities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, they begin to prevent and solve problems efficiently and they start to fulfill their roles responsibly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adjourning Stage of Group Development<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The last stage of Tuckman\u2019s model of group development is adjourning which is also known as mourning. At this stage, the teamwork is done, tasks are completed and goals are met. This stage arrives naturally when a project is completed and the need for a team is no longer felt. At this stage, the team members disband and are deployed. Some members also feel anxious thinking of their future roles. Ar the same time members feel content having accomplished goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The adjourning phase is especially difficult for those people who are habitual of working in teams. Overall, the phase consists of mixed emotions from the members because of the team ending. During this stage, members must keep some things in mind. For instance, they should evaluate their team process, progress and see if any of their deliverables are pending.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using the Forming Storming Norming and Performing Stage for Team Development<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In order to make sure your team is moving forward from stage 1 to the last stage of this team development model, keep in mind a few things:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look at the Current Status of Your Team<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Begin by figuring out at which stage your team might currently be. Only then you\u2019ll know what are some steps you can take to help them grow to their full potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take Steps to Help them Move Forward<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your team may not do everything on its own. They may need at least some external help as they go from the forming stage to the performing stage. After identifying the current status of your team, take steps to push them to the next step.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, if a team in its storming stage is having trouble or arguing in deciding the right thing, help them decide. For a team that is still in its forming stage, help them get comfortable with each other.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Follow Up<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No team can move forward if it\u2019s left unchecked, An important part of helping your team develop is to keep an eye on them from time to them. You should be seeing their current progress and their current status.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also schedule regular review sessions with them. After seeing where your team stands, you can take the essential measures to help them move to the next stage. In addition, you also need to keep an eye on your team even in the performing stage. Their progress can decline if there\u2019s no one to keep a check on it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moving between the Stages\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forming to Storming<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The forming stage is all about getting to know everyone on the team. You may want to make that process easy for your team. In case your team is a remote one, you can try virtual onboarding and online video calls. When going from the forming stage to storming, you can ask your team to have personal goals so they can see where they want to start.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-194150 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams.jpg\" alt=\"Team work\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams-380x253.jpg 380w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams-1160x773.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams-80x53.jpg 80w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams-760x506.jpg 760w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Work-Life-Intergation-for-Teams-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storming to Norming<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storming is a difficult stage and therefore requires the most check and balance. At this stage, you should be seeing where the team members currently stand, what are the shortcomings, and where they seem to be disagreeing with each other.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Building trust between the team members is important and therefore you should take steps to increase it between the members. Additionally, keep an eye on all the conflicts within the team. They may help you see where the team needs fixing, where they are wrong and how they can improve in order to perform at their full potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following up through meetings face to face or online both are important at this stage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Norming to Performing<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although at this stage your team has adjusted itself to the team environment and is finally making progress you still may want to keep an eye on their progress in case it slips back.\u00a0 To make sure they\u2019re performing well, keep up the regular review sessions. During the session make sure you hear the quiet team members and see what they have to say.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the follow-up sessions make sure you motivate your team to go ahead and take responsibility for their actions.

At this stage, you can free some time and focus on yourself. You must also ask your team for any personal development goals they have and then discuss with them the available opportunities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adjourning\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When all is done and dusted, it\u2019s time to celebrate. At this stage, you should make time to celebrate your team\u2019s achievements and make them see how far they\u2019ve come. When all your team members will share positive experiences, it\u2019ll boost their confidence and lift their mood.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not all members may have positive experiences to share. For those that don\u2019t, make sure you listen to them and what suggestions they have to offer. You should appreciate them for going this far. Additionally, you can discuss with them other available career opportunities that they may feel confident about.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ready to Develop Your Team?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tuckman\u2019s forming storming norming and performing model is an excellent way to help your team grow.
