The Tuckman model
In his article, ‘Developmental Sequence in Small Groups’ from 1965, Bruce Tuckman introduced the phrase ‘forming, storming, norming and performing’ to describe how groups are developed [1: link]. These four stages of group development were based on Tuckman’s analysis of empirical research studies [1: link]. In his research, Tuckman explains how as the group progresses through the four stages, it changes from being a collection of random individuals to a high performing group - i.e. a group that effectively works together to fulfil its full potential [link]. The group development progress is visualised in Figure [X].
