Groups
Groups - social entities of two or more people who interact with each other, are psychologically aware of each other, and think of themselves as a group
Formal groups are typically set up and sanctioned by the organization, and thus have specific objectives that contribute to achieving organizational goals
Informal groups are groups that form through interactions among organizational members

Cultural and other factors in
informal group formation
• The need for human beings to function in a social environment and to form relationships of their own choosing
• The voluntary nature of many informal groups offsets the involuntary nature of many formal, organizational groups
• The approach adopted by managers to the running of the organization
• The need for individuals to exert influence and to achieve their formal and personal goals

Recent group development model
Based on: Gibson & Earley, 2007; Gibson et al., 2009:
•information accumulation (perception and storing of information)
•interaction (retrieving, exchanging, and interactively structuring information)
•examination (meaning is socially negotiated and evaluated)
•accommodation (members integrate information, make decisions and take action)

Features of effective and ineffective groupsDimension Effective group Ineffective group
1 Atmosphere Informal, comfortable, relaxed
Indifference, boredom, tension
2 Discussion Participative, pertinent to task Dominated by a few people, drifts off point
3 Objectives Understood and accepted by all
Lack of clarity, not fully accepted by individuals
4 Active listening Members listen to each other, contribution to debate and ideas
Pushing of own ideas, no evidence of building on others, talking for effect
5 Disagreement Brought into the open and resolved or accepted
Not resolved, suppressed by leader, perhaps warfare domination is the aim
6 Decision making By consensus Premature decisions and actions before full examination. Simple majority voting
7 Criticism Frank but not personal Embarrassing, tension producing. Involves personal hostility, destructive approach
8 Feelings Expressed on group activity as well as ideas. Few hidden agendas
Hidden, not thought appropriate to group activity
9 Action Clear allocation and acceptance
Unclear in allocation, lack of commitment to achieve result
10 Leadership Not chair dominated, ‘experts’ lead depending on circumstances, no power struggles
Chair dominated
11 Reviews Self-consciousness about present operations, frequent reviews
No discussion of group maintenance issues

GROUP CONTROL AND ROLE THEORY
• Rules - explicit informal agreements or formal statements about acceptable and unacceptable behaviour
• Norms - implicit and informal expectations for behaviour within social entities
• Expected role – what the organization expects the individual to do in relation to their role
• Perceived role – what the individual understands their expected role to be
• Enacted role - reflects what the individual actually does in carrying out the tasks for which they are responsible
