Homework
Think about a popular TV show you watch that focuses on small-group dynamics. This could be a popular TV drama, focused on the workplace, for example.
Write, individually, a one-page reaction to the small-group dynamics demonstrated in the show. From a communication perspective, what went wrong? How could the members have handled the situation differently? Post your reaction for your team. Review and comment on the reactions of each team member. Identify common observations.
Analyze, as a team, the small-group dynamics demonstrated in the videos by considering the following:
1. The scope and functions of the small group within the organization, such as idea generation, event planning, process or creation, evaluation, and quality control
2. The effectiveness of each member's communication styles. What are the opportunities for improvement?
3. The type of leadership within the small group, such as fixed, rotational, or ad hoc
4. How the group leader and members communicate during group meetings
5. Communication obstacles, such as groupthink tendencies, credibility issues, and insufficient listening
