ORGB 300 Midterm 2
What is a Group? - correct answer ✔Two or more freely interacting
individuals who share norms and goals and have a common identity


Groups usually accomplish more than individuals


2 Functions of Formal Groups - correct answer ✔1. Organizational
2. Individual


Organizational Functions - correct answer ✔Management assigned to
accomplish specific goals


-Accomplish interdependent tasks that are beyond individual capabilities
-Generate new or creative ideas or solutions
-Coordinate interdepartmental efforts
-Provide a problem solving mechanism for complex problems requiring varied
information and assessments
-Implement complex decisions
-Socialize and train newcomers


Individual Functions - correct answer ✔-Satisfy individual needs for attention
-Develop, enhance, and confirm individual's self-esteem and sense of identity
-Give individuals an opportunity to test and share their perceptions of social
reality
-Reduce the individual's anxieties and feelings of insecurity
-Provide a problem-solving mechanism for personal and interpersonal
problems

,Roles - correct answer ✔A role is a set of expected behaviors for a particular
position, and a group role is a set of expected behaviors for members of the
group as a whole.


Each role you play is defined in part by the expectations of that role.
Sociologists view roles and their associated expectations as a fundamental
basis of human interaction and experience.


In the many arenas of life (e.g., work, family, and school), people often play
multiple roles. At work, for example, employees frequently play roles that go
beyond duties in a job description, such as helping coworkers and suggesting
improvements.


2 Types of Roles - correct answer ✔1. Task - Keep Group On track
2. Maintenance - keep group together


Task Roles - correct answer ✔Enable the work group to define, clarify, and
pursue a common purpose


Maintenance - correct answer ✔Foster supportive and constructive
interpersonal relationships


Norm - correct answer ✔An attitude, opinion, feeling, or action shared by two
or more people that guides behavior


Norms help create order and allow groups to function more efficiently, as they
prevent groups from having to progress through the development process
each and every time they meet.

, Norms are more encompassing than roles, which tend to be at the individual
level in the Integrative Framework and pertain to a specific job or situation.
Norms, in contrast, are shared phenomena and apply to the group, team, or
organization level.


Although norms are typically unwritten and seldom discussed openly, they
have a powerful influence on group and organizational behavior


Reinforced Norms - correct answer ✔Norms are reinforced for many
purposes including:
-Group/organization survival
-Clarification of behavioral expectations
-Avoidance of embarrassment
-Clarification of central values/unique identity


Stages of Group Development - correct answer ✔1. Forming
2. Storming
3. Norming
4. Performing
5. Adjourning


Forming - correct answer ✔"Ice-breaking" stage
Group members uncertain about their role
Mutual trust is low
Good deal of holding back to see who is in charge
