A team is a group of individuals who cooperate and work together to achieve a given set of objectives or goals (Horodyski, 1995).(Horodyski, 1995).

Assigning more programmers to a project running behind schedule will make it even later, due to the time required for the new programmers to learn about the project, as well as the increased communication overhead.

Tuckman (1960s) published five stage model of team development
![Page 40: The Project Management Process - Week 7 Managing Teams](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102823/53ebb3b48d7f7289708b5456/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Implications for teams:
A project manager needs to devote initial attention to helping the group evolve quickly to the (performing phase).
This model provides a framework for the group to understand its own development.
It stresses the importance of the norming phase which contributes to the level of productivity.
![Page 43: The Project Management Process - Week 7 Managing Teams](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102823/53ebb3b48d7f7289708b5456/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Recent studies suggest that there is no standardized pattern of group development. What do you think about Tuckman’s model?
Does it feel right to you?

Punctuated Equilibrium Model(1988) Gersick found that there are natural transition points during the life of teams in which the group is receptive to change and that such a moment naturally occurs at the scheduled midpoint of a projectBy imposing a series of deadlines, with milestones, it is possible to create multiple transition points for natural group development

Training can help people understand themselves and each other, and understand how to work better in teams.
Training
The main goal of team development is to help people work together more effectively to improve project performance.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
(1960s) Abraham Maslow developed a hierarchy of needs to illustrate his theory that people’s behaviors are guided by a sequence of needs
Maslow argued that humans possess unique qualities that enable them to make independent choices, thus giving them control of their destiny

Hertzberg’s Motivation-Hygiene TheoryIn the late 1960s Frederick Herzberg wrote about worker motivation.He distinguished between motivation factors and hygiene factors.
motivation factorsHelp motivate workers
directly eg. achievement, recognition, work,
responsibility
hygiene factors cause dissatisfaction if
absent but do not motivate,
eg. Money, working conditions,

Review1. Effective teams have common characteristics such as; size
range, purpose, communication, leadership, cohesiveness, identity, diversity, and cooperation.
2. Traditional research suggests teams develop in 5-stage process; forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. Modern approach indicates growth occurs at project transition points.
3. Team development can be facilitated through training, personality indicators, social styles profiles, and reward systems.
4. PM’s can utilize people handling strategies from motivation theorists and other theorists such as; Maslow, Hertzberg, McClelland, McGregor and Covey …
5. Other areas of importance include; recruitment, maintenance, and conflict management of project teams.
