LESSON NOTES
============
The Tuckman Model of Group Development is the best known, most widely used model of group formation.

Describes the evolution from a group of individuals to a team.

Tuckman asserts the rhyme is the reason for the success of his model – sometimes called the ‘orming model’ – but this model is at the perfect sweet spot.
We will look at alternative models later in the course.

The 5 Stages of the Tuckman Model
• Forming
• Storming
• Norming
• Performing
• Mourning/Adjourning
Plus...
• Transforming
