Group Dynamics
Teams are stronger than individuals, but you have to put the work in to get the results out.
Group Dynamics Skills
They can sometimes be a many-headed monster ready to rip out your beating heart and feed it to the dogs, and sometimes be a black hole lazily devouring your energy, giving nothing in return.
But, thankfully most of the time they’re an amorphous mass waiting to be shaped and led…
If they can just find a great manager.
Effective Management
Effective managers and leaders know about handling groups. Different strokes for different folks, but each understands, (or understood in the cases of our deceased megalomaniacs) how groups work.
Accepting and acknowledging that groups, however small, are formed from individuals, is the key to understanding the nature of the beast
They’re complicated and messy and full of contradictions.
Working With the Dynamic
Throw in a little individual envy, de-motivation, pragmatism, ambition etc. etc. into the pot and you can see why working with the dynamic will be key to any success you may achieve.
Once you accept that, you can move forward.
Teams are stronger than individuals, but you have to put the work in to get the results out.
Having expectations of how a group ‘should be’ will get you into a lot of trouble.
A cardinal point to remember is that more often than not a roomful of people will defy your expectations so always expect the unexpected.
Understanding Group Dynamics
We have a wealth of understanding of how group dynamics work and how to make them work for you.
It’s what we do every day in the training room no matter what the workshop.
We have to be on top of our game, shaping, suggesting, and invisibly steering.
Understanding and working with the flow of your group’s dynamic can pay handsome dividends for any good team.
The small effort involved in running a group training event to help you work and play together is well worth it.
