development introduced by Bruce tuckman
0:44
in 1965 the model outlines five stages
0:47
that every team typically goes through
0:50
forming storming norming performing and
0:52
adjourning each stage comes with its own
0:55
challenges and opportunities for growth
0:58
let's dive into each of these stages and
0:59
disc discuss how you as a project
1:01
manager can support your team at every
1:03
step the first stage is forming this is
1:07
when the team comes together for the
1:08
first time and everyone is figuring out
1:11
their roles and responsibilities team
1:13
members tend to be polite but cautious
1:15
unsure of how to interact with one
1:17
another they rely heavily on the project
1:19
manager for direction and
1:20
guidance as the project manager your job
1:23
in this stage is to provide Clarity set
1:26
clear expectations Define roles and
1:28
establish ground rules this is your
1:30
chance to create a welcoming environment
1:32
where everyone feels comfortable
1:33
contributing facilitating introductions
1:36
and helping the team get to know one
1:37
another is key to building a foundation
1:40
trust next we move into the storming
1:42
stage which is often the most
1:44
challenging during this phase conflicts
1:46
and disagreements begin to surface team
1:49
members are now more comfortable
1:50
expressing their opinions and as a
1:52
result they may Clash over roles
1:55
responsibilities or ideas tension occurs
1:57
as individuals push against boundaries
2:00
limits this is where your conflict
2:02
management skills come into play as the
2:05
project manager you need to manage
2:06
immediate conflicts encouraging open
2:08
communication and helping the team
2:10
resolve disputes constructively
2:12
reinforce the project goals and help
2:15
clarify roles if necessary remember
2:17
patience is key during storming it's a
2:21
development once your team has worked
2:23
through their conflicts they enter the
2:25
norming stage this is where
2:27
collaboration starts to improve team
2:30
members begin to understand each other's
2:32
strengths and weaknesses and they
2:34
develop stronger relationships trust and
2:36
respect are growing and the team starts
2:40
cohesively your role as the project
2:42
manager during norming is to facilitate
2:44
collaboration and keep Communication

reinforce positive team behaviors
2:51
although the team is becoming more
2:53
independent they still need your support
2:55
to maintain their momentum and continue
2:58
trust the Performing St stage is where
3:00
the team reaches its peak at this point
3:02
the team is highly effective and
3:04
productive team members know their roles
3:06
and responsibilities they collaborate
3:08
seamlessly and they can handle conflicts
3:10
internally as a result the project runs
3:12
smoothly with minimal intervention from
3:14
the project manager in performing your
3:17
job as the project manager is to
3:19
delegate more responsibility and act as

successes recognize the team's
3:31
achievements to keep morale high and
3:34
motivated finally we come to adjourning
3:37
