A new project team has recently been established by Alex  plc.

Last week a meeting of the project team was held at which clear objectives and performance measures were agreed for the project in hand.

However, at today’s weekly progress meeting, there were numerous arguments concerning which roles would be undertaken by which members of staff.

From this, it is evident that the project team is at which stage of group development?

Select ONE answer:

  1. Forming
  2. Norming
  3. Performing
  4. Storming

Show your workings to arrive at your answer, and explain and justify your reasons:

This multiple-choice question is suitable for Accounting KS5 classes.

The answer is 4

  1. Not correct
  2. Not correct
  3. Not correct
  4. Correct- The forming stage is associated primarily with seeking to define the purpose of the group (achieved at last week’s meeting), but the storming stage  is where conflict first arises, particularly concerning competition for chosen roles. Once such conflicts have been addressed, the group will norm and then, hopefully, perform.
