The success of a cohesive group is this: the value of the group is greater than the sum of its parts. Synergy is the ability of a group to outperform even its best individual member. Trully effective groups actively looked for the points in which they disagreed and in consequence encouraged conflicts amongst the participants in the early stages of the discussion. In contrast, the ineffective groups establish a common view quickly, use simple decision making methods such as averaging, and focused on completing the task rather than on finding solutions they could agree on. This has been a norm on many companies and organizations; keeping them mediocre!
Out Synergy training program focuses on developing a group that becomes more cohesive, causing it function to be affected in a number of ways. First, the interactions and communication between members increase. Common goals, interests and small size all contribute to this. In addition, group member satisfaction increases as the group provides friendship and support against outside threats.
We build our program to emphasis the most important aspect of Synergy. They are:
1. Respect
2. Conversations
3. Partnership
4. Compassion
5. Non-Judgment
6. Acceptance
7. Responsibility
8. Integrity
9. Commitment.
10. I Am Coachable!
There are negative aspects of group cohesion which have an effect on group decision-making and hence on group effectiveness. There are two issues arising. The risky shift phenomenon is the tendency of a group to make decisions that are riskier than those that the group would have recommended individually. Group Polarization is when individuals in a group begin by taking a moderate stance on an issue regarding a common value and, after having discussed it, end up taking a more extreme stance. Keeping strict value based decision structure in the framework of our sessions negates both threats .
A second, potential negative consequence of group cohesion is group think. Group think is a mode of thinking that people engage in when they are deeply involved in cohesive group, when the members’ striving for unanimity overrides their motivation to appraise realistically the alternative courses of action. Our program is built with specific sessions to counter the known effects of group-think.
