AnalysisIn this reflection report, I will explain our group situations by adopting the Five-Stage Model of Group Development, then using other theories or research to analyze the situations. 1. The five-stage model of group development Figure 1: The five-stage model Source: Adapted from Tuckman's theory suggests five stages of group development, respectively Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing and Adjourning (Tuckman, 1965 and Tuckman and Jessen , 1977). In the first four stages, the model demonstrates that group bonding could be developed by joining the goal or task, then updates the stage once the task is finished. Recently, the SEEDS situation is in a process of transformation from the Storming phase to the Norming phase. The formation of SEEDS in the training phase took place during an induction program and our members had a strong goal to be the winner of the marketing stimulation game. During this time, everyone was excited to be part of the team, excited about the work ahead, and satisfied with the group's performance. Most of our members wanted to understand each other, get to know each other. I thought there were two main reasons that made the group work environment enjoyable from the first to the sixth week. The first was successful marketing of the case studies and the other was compliance by all members with our group's charter (Appendix 1). However, I encountered a slight issue, caused by critical time management and a language barrier, where some members reported ignoring suggestions from non-native speakers. This was before our situation reached the Storming stage. Storming Phase The conflict arises from different ambitions within SEEDS, as most of our members always arrived at... middle of the paper... situations happened due to no preparation of the group members, absence of a real leaders, unclear communication and conflicts between tasks and relationships. Motivational expectancy theory (Vroom, 1964) proposes that the individual is encouraged to act if there is an expected outcome. In this case a commitment-performance relationship was introduced. As mentioned above, the marketing case studies had no grade, so Person A was always absent from the marketing meeting accusing him of having to focus on the group assignment, and some of our members tackle the marketing case without attention. However, the rest of the group thought that the case studies could gain the marketing experiences to prepare them for a real business world, so they wanted to study all aspects carefully. I thought the different point of view could create an uncomfortable working environment and conflicts in our group.
