In 1965, a psychologist named Bruce Tuckman identified a 4 stage model of group development.

The 4 stages that were identified are:

Forming: 
The first stage is Forming, and the primary focus in this stage is on the people. This includes defining roles, building relationships, creating structure and developing group norms.

Storming: 
As time goes on, conflicts eventually arise and teams transition into the Storming stage. This is when frustration and disagreements about roles, goals, and responsibilities begin to surface.

Norming: 
During the Norming stage, team members resolve their differences and begin to shift their energy toward the team’s goals. Members start to feel like they are part of a team and can take pleasure from the increased group cohesion.

Performing: 
In the Performing stage, processes, structures, and relationships work without friction and the team makes significant progress towards its goals.

TL;DR: Never assume that everyone is aligned and knows what to do next

• Document and communicate outcomes for reference
• Get feedback and iterate after the meeting

In this episode we talk about how to take a proactive approach to planning in a VUCA world.

VUCA, is a military acronym that stands for Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity. It’s an excellent way to view the complexity of the world around us. And like Mike Tyson said, “everyone has a plan, until they get punched in the mouth.” But seriously…
