Document Summary
Examples: lunch groups/group goes out to drink. Where do norms come from: (cid:862)pri(cid:373)acy(cid:863) initial patterns tend to be repeated, carry over from previous situations, explicitly stated, critical events. What happens if you violate these norms: social norms: not so severe, your team: people mad at you, get kicked out, fines, punishment, cult: death. Greater cohesion has a greater penalty for violating norms. Cohesion and performance = bell curve: good until a point where you get to group think and the performance decreases. Open ended discussion, problem- solving meetings meeting. Effectiveness based on the influence of team. You can always fool the team leader, but the team can see through you. Higher productivity of the team, the higher you get paid. Team members have power to vote on allowing individuals to join their team. Groups anchored are more likely to produce a higher/lower number depending on the anchor number.
