However, adjourning a group completes the group formation. It shows that the group has been successful in completing its pre-determined objective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are forming, storming, norming, performing, mourning and retiring. The terms are pretty self-explanatory. When a group is forming,&nbsp;participants can feel anxious not knowing how the group will work or what exactly will be required of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reasons for Group formation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Factors of group formation are the interaction that a group offers to its members. Attraction is due to the following reasons for group formation-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol style=\"list-style-type:lower-roman\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Similarity between the group members.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fulfillment of needs of the members.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Goals of the group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prestige of the group also attracts the members to become a part of the group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Need for affiliation among human beings is also a good and strong factor of group formation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interaction among individuals helps in the proximity of the group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Good status achieved by a group member.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cooperative relationships and rewards received also increase the attractiveness of the group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Positive interaction within the group members also directs the attractiveness of the group because it increases the personal and social needs which are being met by the group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Size of the group also affects its attractiveness. It is easy to interact in small groups than in the big groups.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Positive relations add to the prestige of the, group and make the group more attractive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Groups which are perceived as meeting goals effectively appear more attractive.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>People join groups for a number of reasons. They might be looking for affiliation, a fulfilment of social needs. Groups also add to an individual\u2019s sense of security, status or self-esteem. Or perhaps a goal is easier <a><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><a style=\"color: #ffffff;\" title=\"situs gacor\" href=\"https:\/\/eva.istjm.edu.ec\/\">situs gacor<\/a><\/span><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p>Groups are inevitable in the workplace. Understanding how and why they come together is the first step in understanding how they function and how they can function well. However, there are plenty of arguments out there for individual work, and understanding the individual\u2019s need to succeed in the workplace independent of others. They carry out specific tasks to attain organisational goals. They have clearly defined authority-responsibility relationships, communication channels, rules and regulations to govern the behaviour of members.   <a href=\"https:\/\/pphouse.org\/\">https:\/\/pphouse.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"529\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.goseeko.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/image-61.png?resize=900%2C529&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Reasons for group formation\" class=\"wp-image-10202\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Figure: Reasons for group formation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(A) From Members Point of View:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1.&nbsp;Companionship:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Relationships give an individual recognition. The need for relationship with other people is one of the strongest human drives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2.&nbsp;Identity:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Workers get more identified in small groups and so small groups tend to enjoy high morale as compared to large groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3.&nbsp;Information:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The informal group to which a member belongs is a source of communication or information to him. A piece of information available to one member will nearly reach all the members in a short span of time. An individual comes to know about what is happening in an organization even if he has been on leave or is otherwise away.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4.&nbsp;Security:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By joining a group, a person feels stronger, has lesser self doubts and is more resistant to threats. A person always derives reassurance from interacting with others and being part of a group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5.&nbsp;Esteem:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The members will feel good about themselves by virtue of the group\u2019s power, prestige and social standing. They will get opportunities for recognition and praise that are not available outside the group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(B) From Organization\u2019s Point of View:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Informal group satisfies some of the social and psychological needs of its members. It is useful from the organization\u2019s point of view. In fact, the findings of many social researchers suggest that informal groups are essential for the organizational stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1.&nbsp;Lightening of Responsibility:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cooperate group can always be entrusted with some responsibility which will lighten the manager\u2019s mental burden to some extent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2.&nbsp;Filling the Gaps:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An enlightened group can also fill in gaps in management\u2019s abilities. Sometimes, a subordinate can help the superior to grasp over the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3.&nbsp;Restraining the Authority:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It helps to keep checks and balances on the manager\u2019s excessive use of authority. A manager is not allowed to cross his limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4.&nbsp;Proper and Careful Planning:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A manager will be very careful in planning and other jobs for the fear of the presence of the group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5.&nbsp;Information:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The informal group to which a member belongs is a source of communication or information to him. A piece of information available to one member will nearly reach all the members in a short span of time.
