SLP Homework
In this homework select one Fortune 500 company from the 2021 Fortune List that you have not studied previously.
Review the background material, including the video about Tuckman's steps for group formation. Begin the homework by reading the Stretch (2016) reference as well as chapters 9 and 10 in the Organizational Behavior textbook found below and on the Background page of this Module.
The focus of this homework is on group (or team) formation to improve team performance and resolve group conflict. The easiest way to learn about this is to put a group or team together-but you must first decide if you need a group or a team.
Research your selected company and conduct a quick SWOT analysis on Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats.
Select one of the identified Weaknesses to develop a group or team that will investigate a possible solution for the weakness.
Your 2-page essay will cover the following topics:
Question A. Did you select to form a group or a team? (Explain the difference between them.)
Question B. What weakness did you select to research and why did you select it?
Question C. What steps will you take to develop the right team to turn this weakness into a strength?
Question D. What will you do if there are conflicts in the group?
