team!

Take time to
celebrate the team’s
achievements - you
may work with the
members again and
it’s great if past
experiences are
viewed in a positive
light

13. Key Points
Team formation usually follows easily
recognisable stages, known as "forming,
storming, norming, performing, and later added
mourning" (created by Psychologist Bruce
Tuckman).
You can use Tuckman's model to help your team
reach the performing stage as quickly as
possible.
First, identify the stage of development that your
team is at. Then, use strategies that move your
team through to the next stage in the team
formation process. With focus and hard work,
you'll quickly have a high-performing team.
