Question 1: How do interpersonal and group process interventions contribute to improving team performance and resolving conflicts? Select an organization that has recently faced challenges related to team dynamics or conflict (from personal experience, case studies, or media). Discuss the potential or actual use of interpersonal and group process interventions, specifically:

Process Consultation: Can you identify any situations within the organization where facilitation could have or did improve group dynamics and resolve process issues?

Third-party Interventions: Were there conflicts that might have or did benefit from external mediation? How did or could these interventions facilitate better resolutions?

Team Building: How could or did team-building activities help align team efforts with organizational goals during the transition?

Evaluate the effectiveness of these interventions in managing resistance to change, fostering commitment among stakeholders, and achieving the intended outcomes. What improvements or alternative strategies might have led to more effective results?
