Leadership Development Experts, Part III
Dr. Bruce Tuckman
Recently we did a deep dive with a client on the stages of her team’s development. We used an activity called interdependency or “the Quantum Puzzle” to illustrate how her team can progress through stages and what happens when change is introduced.
We had a great, lengthy debrief with this executive team on how to lead teams through these stages and how a leader can accelerate the team’s growth. For those of you who would like to learn more about your team’s stage (forming, storming, norming, or performing), and the underlying model that informs this theory please refer to the work of Dr. Bruce Tuckman and his “The Tuckman Model”
Also, those of you working with SMWT or SDWT ask about the adjourning stage of that model. For those many requests about information on Dr. Tuckman and his model, the link above will help you out.
What other team models have you come across and how have they benefited you or a client?
