THE FOLLOWER Different people require different styles ofleadership. For example,a new hire requiresmore supervision than an experienced employee. A person witha different place requires a different approach than one with ahigh peak ofmotivation. You must knowyour people The wakeless starting point is having a good understanding of humannature needs, emotions, and motivation. You must know your employe es be, know and do attributes. LEADERYou must have an unspoilt understanding of who youare, what you know, and what you can do.Also, note that it is the followers, not the leader who determinesif a leader issuccessful. If a follower does no it trust or lacks confidence in his or her leader, then she will be uninspired. To be successful you have to convince your followers, not yourself or your supervisors, that you are worthy of being followed. COMMUNICATION You lead through two waycommunication. Much of it is non-verbal. For instance, when you set the example, that communicates to your people that you would no task them to perform anything that you would not be willing to do.What and how you communicate either builds or harms the kindred between you and your employees. SITUATION All situations are different. What youdo in one leadership situation will not always work in another situation.

KNOW human nature KNOW your job KNOW your organization. DO provide direction. DO implement. DO motivate. Forming, Storming, Norming, playacting, Adjourning The Tuck man model(2)shows the five stages that teams go through from Forming to Storming to Norming to Performing to Adjourning.Forming In the Forming stage, team members are introduced. They state why they were chosenor volunteered for the team a nd what they hope to accomplish within the team. Members cautiously explore the boundaries of acceptable group behavior. This is a stage of inflectionfrom individual to member status, and of testing the leaders guidance both formally and informally. Forming includes these feelings and behaviors Excitement, anticipation, and optimism. Pride in being chosen for theproject A tentative attachment to the team Suspicion and anxiety about the job.Defining the tasks and how they will be accomplished. Determining acceptable group behavior. Deciding what information needs to be gathered. Abstract discussions of the concepts and issues, and for some members, displeasure withthe discussions. There will be difficulty in identifying some of the relevantproblems. Because there is so a lotgoing on to distract members attention in the beginning, the team accomplishes little, if anything, that concerns its project goals. This is perfectly normal. Storming During the teams transition from the As-Is tothe To-Be, is called the Storming build.All members have their own ideas as to how theprocess should look, and personal agendas arerampant. Storming is probably the most difficultstage for the team. They begin to realize thetasks that are ahead are different andmoredifficult than they imagined. Impatient about thelack of progress, members argue about just whatactions the team should take. They try to relysolely on their personal and professionalexperience, and resist collaborating with mostofthe other team members. Storming includes these feelings and behaviorsResisting the tasks. Resisting quality improvement approachessuggested by other members.Sharp fluctuations in attitude about the teamand the projects chance of success. Arguing among members even when they agreeon the real issues. Defensiveness, competition, and choosing sides. Questioning the wisdom of those who selectedthis project and appointed the othermembersof the team. Establishing unrealistic goals. Disunity, incre ased tension, and jealousy. The above pressures mean that teammembershave little energy tospend on progressingtowards the teams goal. tho theyare beginningto understand one another. This phase sometimestakes 3 or 4 meetings before arriving at theNorming phase.Norming The Norming phase is when the team reaches aconsensus on theTo-Be process. Everyonewants to share thenewly found focus. Enthusiasmis high, and the team is tempted to go beyond theoriginal scope of the process. During this stage,members constitute competing loyalties andresponsibilities. They accept the team, teamground rules, their roles in the team, and theindividuality of fellow members. Emotionalconflict is reduced as previously competitiverelationships become more cooperative. Norming includes these feelings and behaviorsAn ability to elicit criticismconstructively.Acceptance of membership in the team. An attempt to achieve harmonyby avoidingconflict. More friendliness, confiding in each other, andsharing of pers onal problems. A sense of team cohesion, spirit,and goals. Establishing and maintaining team ground rules and boundaries. As team members begin to work out their differences, they now have more timeand energy to spend on the project. Performing The team has now settled its relationships andexpectations. They can begin performing bydiagnosing, solving problems, and choosing andimplementing changes.At digest team membershave spy and accepted eachothersstrengths and weakness, and learned what theirroles are. Performing includes these feelings andbehaviorsMembers have insights into personal andgroupprocesses, and better understanding of eachothers strengths and weakness. Constructive self-change. efficacy to prevent or workthrough groupproblemsClose attachment to the teamThe team is now an effective, cohesive unit. Youcan tell when your team has reached this stagebecause you start getting a lotof work done. Adjourning The team briefs and shares theimproved processduring the this phas e.When the team finallycomp permites that last briefing, there is always abittersweet sense of accomplishment coupledwith the reluctance tosay good-bye. Manyrelationships formed within these teams continuelong after the team disbands TEAM VS GROUP There are several factors that separate teamsfrom groups. Roles andResponsibilities Within a group, individuals establish a set ofbehaviors called roles. These roles setexpectations governing relationships. Roles oftenserve as source of confusion and conflict. Whileon the other hand, teams have a sharedunderstanding on how to perform their role.These roles include leader, facilitator,timekeeper, and recorder. Identity While teams have an identity, groups do not. It isalmost impossible to establish the sense ofcohesion that characterizes a team without thisfundamental step. A team has aclearunderstanding about what constitutes the teamswork and why it isimportant. They can describea picture of what the team needs to achieve, andthe norms an d values that will guide them Cohesion groups have an esprit that shows a sense ofbonding and camaraderie. Esprit is the spirit,soul, and state of head of the team.It is theoverall consciousness of the team thata personidentifies with and feelsa part of. Individualsbegin using we more than me. Facilitate Groups have a tendency to get bogged down withtrivial issues. Ask yourself, How much time getswasted in meetings you attend? Teams usefacilitators to keep the team on the right path. Communication While members of a group arecentered uponthemselves, the team is perpetrate to opencommunication. Team members feel they canstate their opinions, thoughts, and feelingswithout fear. Listening is considered as importantas speaking.Differences of opinion is valued andmethods of managing conflict are understood. Through honest and caring feedback, membersare aware of their strengths and weaknessasteam members. There is anatmosphere of trustand acceptance and a sense of community. Flexibi lity about groups are extremely rigid. Teams, howevermaintain a high level of flexibility, and theyperform different task and maintenance functionsas needed. The responsibility for teamdevelopment and leadership is shared. Thestrengths of each member are identifiedandused. Morale Team members are enthusiastic about the work ofthe team and each person feels pride in being a 16 ember of the team. Team spirit is high. To be asuccessful team, the group must have astrongability to produce results and ahigh degree ofsatisfaction in working with oneanother. Working With Other TeamMembers Although we are like in many ways, we are dislikein a lot more ways. Humans have always tried toclassify things, including themselves. This sectionuses a touristed categorizer by placing people intofour styles Driver, Persuader, Analyzer,Organizer. (note that the names will vary widelydepending upon the creator of the map). Itdoesthis by charting them on two dimensions tasksand emotions.People gets r esults on tasksbetween two extremes expedience andprocesses. People use emotions in dealing withothers through two extremes controlled orresponsive. In the chart below, the twodimensions are shown under the profile Character Be a piece of therock Charisma The first impression can seal the deal. Commitment It seperates doers fromdreamers Communication without it you travel alone Competence if you build it they will come Courage one person with courage is amajority Discernment put an end tounsolved mysteries Focus the sharper it is, the sharper you are Generosity your candle loses nothing when it lights another gap you wont leave home without it Listening to connect with their hearts use your ears 43 Passion take this life and love it Positive attitude if you believe you can, you can Problem solving you cant letyour problems be a problem Relationships if you get along they will go along Resposibility if you wont carry the ball you wont lead theteam Security competenc e never compensates for insecurity Self-discipline the first person you lead is you
