1. define the forming stage and list four activities that happen in this stage
viva [34]

Answer:

  1. The forming stage involves a period of orientation and getting acquainted. Uncertainty is high during this stage, and people are looking for leadership and authority. A member who asserts authority or is knowledgeable may be looked to take control.
  2. It can be a petty clash of personality or an incompatibility in communication styles. Or it could be something more serious, such as a disagreement about the team's goals. It could even exhibit itself as one team member accusing another of not pulling their weight in the project.
  3. Tuckman (1965) identified four stages of team development including Forming, Storming, Norming, and Performing. This widely referenced early work continues to provide a useful model for understanding the dynamic nature of the evolution of teams.
  4. Stage 1: Forming. Feelings. ...
  5. Stage 2: Storming. Feelings. ...
  6. Stage 3: Norming. Feelings. ...
  7. Stage 4: Performing. Feelings. ...
  8. Stage 5: Termination/Ending. Some teams do come to an end, when their work is completed or when the organization's needs change.

Pat Jones is a college student who is planning some networking opportunities for the current l semester. Pat wanted to look
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

1. I feel like Pat's new strategy isn't ethical. Pat doesn't pay for the suits; he just buys them and then returns them. Pat benefits, but the store he gets the suits from doesn't. In fact, they are harmed from this transaction because they are unable to have the suit for others to buy while Pat has it. There could be consequences with this strategy. For example, the suit might be damaged, and Pat won't be able to return it. Another problem is that others might find out about Pat's strategy, and they might view them as unprofessional. This is a problem for Pat since the reason Pat wore those suits was to look professional.

2. The stores are harmed from this transaction. They are unable to sell the suits to other buyers. The stores lose potential customers, so the stores lose potential money.

3. The companies should record that Pat had bought the suit only to return it the next day, so that they can act accordingly when Pat or someone else comes back to "buy" a suit.
