At our first meeting, we went through a forming stage where we worked through a transition process involving mission analysis and planning. We discussed the project requirements and how to effectively complete the task based on each other’s strengths, weaknesses and abilities. Then the team began to research and investigate ideas to include in the report. These action processes caused some conflict since the report was a limited length, and we had to decide on the most important and noteworthy information. This storming stage was short-lived and we quickly progressed into the norming and performing stages of team development. We soon realized that we were short on time so we made definite plans to facilitate and organize virtual meetings. The team was composed of 5 members, among which there was a great deal of diversity ethnically, gender-wise and deep-level diversity in our personalities. The diversity within the group, allowed us to explore many different views and perceptions, as supported by the value in diversity problem-solving approach. Each member played several roles, including the energizer, encourager and harmonizer, as it was required of them. The project was mainly an additive task, where everyone’s contributions made up the final result. All members had a unique sense of humor that kept the process fun and light-hearted. This attitude allowed for interpersonal processes such as motivation, encouragement and relationship-building to occur very naturally. Due to the pressure that the time limit enforced, team harmony did not result in groupthink behaviors, because we ensured that the project was the most important priority.
