Group Dynamic:
Meaning:
The word dynamics means ‘force’. Group dynamics means the study of forces
within a group. Since human beings have an innate desire for belonging to a group,
group dynamism is bound to occur. In an organization or in a society, we can see
groups, small or large, working for the well-being.
➢ The social process by which people interact with each other in small groups can
be called group dynamism. A group has certain common objectives and goals and
members are bound together with certain values and culture.
Group Dynamic:
Group dynamics is a system of behaviors and psychological processes occurring
within a social group.
Group dynamics can be useful in understanding decision-making behaviour, tracking
the spread of diseases in society, creating effective therapy techniques, and following the
emergence and popularity of new ideas and technologies.
• In organizational development, group dynamics refers to the understanding of
behaviour of people in groups that are trying to solve a problem or making a
decision. A good manager can act as a facilitator and assist the group in
accompanying its objectives and arrive at correct decisions.
Importance of Group Dynamism:

• 1. The group can influence the thinking of its members. The members are always
influenced by the interactions of other members in the group.

• 2. A group with a good leader performs better as compared to a group with weak
leader.

• 3. The group can give the effect of synergy, that is, if the group consists of positive
thinkers then its output is more than the double every time.

• 4. Group dynamism can give job satisfaction to the members.

5. The group can also bring team spirit among the members.
6. Even the attitude, perceptions, and ideas of members depend on group dynamism.
For example, the negative thinkers can be converted to positive thinkers with the help
of the facilitator.
7. If the group works as a cohesive group, the cooperation and convergence can result
in maximization of productivity.
8. Lastly, group dynamism can reduce the labour unrest and labour turnover due to
emotional attachment among the group members.
Process of Group development:
Group dynamics deals with the attitudes and behavioral patterns of a group. Group
dynamics concern how groups are formed, what is their structure and which
processes are followed in their functioning. Thus, it is concerned with the
interactions and forces operating between groups.
Process:
Forming:
The first stage in the life of a group is concerned with forming a group. This stage is characterized by members
seeking either a work assignment (in a formal group) or other benefit, like status, affiliation, power, etc. (in an
informal group). Members at this stage either engage in busy type of activity or show apathy.
Storming:
The next stage in this group is marked by the formation of dyads and triads. Members seek out familiar or similar
individuals and begin a deeper sharing of self. Continued attention to the subgroup creates a differentiation in the
group and tensions across the dyads / triads may appear. Pairing is a common phenomenon. There will be
conflict about controlling the group.
Norming:
The third stage of group development is marked by a more serious concern about task performance. The
dyads/triads begin to open up and seek out other members in the group. Efforts are made to establish various
norms for task performance.
Members begin to take greater responsibility for their own group and relationship while the authority figure
becomes relaxed. Once this stage is complete, a clear picture will emerge about hierarchy of leadership. The
norming stage is over with the solidification of the group structure and a sense of group identity and
camaraderie.
Performing:
This is a stage of a fully functional group where members see themselves as a group and get involved in the task.
Each person makes a contribution and the authority figure is also seen as a part of the group. Group norms are
followed and collective pressure is exerted to ensure the Process of Group effectiveness of the group.
The group may redefine its goals Development in the light of information from the outside environment and show
an autonomous will to pursue those goals. The long-term viability of the group is established and nurtured.
Adjourning:
In the case of temporary groups, like project team, task force, or any other such group, which have a limited task at
hand, also have a fifth stage, This is known as adjourning.
The group decides to disband. Some members may feel happy over the performance, and some may be unhappy
over the stoppage of meeting with group members. Adjourning may also be referred to as mourning, i.e.
mourning the adjournment of the group.
The readers must note that the four stages of group development mentioned above for permanent groups are
merely suggestive. In reality, several stages may go on simultaneously.
