o Excitement and politeness wore off
o Personalities clash, disagreement on how to complete tasks, voice their concerns if
someone feels that someone is not pulling their weight, question the authority or
guidance of group leaders

Resist control and show hostility
  Norming Stage

THREE TYPES OF LEADRERSHIP (Lewin, Lippit, Whit, 1939)

1. AUTHORITARIAN LEADERSHIP (survival)

o use their authority to impose the ways of working and often make decisions without
consulting their team or followers. This can work in organizations where input from
followers needs to be minimal and where their motivation to ‘follow’ is not affected by
not being involved in the decision.
➢ leader makes decision and announces it
➢ leader presents decision but "sells it to the members “
➢ leader presents a decision and invites questions for clarification
2. PARTICIPATIVE/ DEMOCRATIC
o These leaders usually involve their followers in the decisionmaking process. They tend
to encourage participation from the team and delegate authority to team members.
This style of leadership is important when team agreement matters.
➢ leader presents a tentative decision subject to change.
➢ leader presents situation, gets input, makes decision.
➢ leader calls on members to make decision, but holds the veto power
3. LAISSES FAIRE/ DELEGATIVE OR FREE REIN
o These leaders give followers full freedom to make most decisions and to perform work
in the manner that is most convenient for them. This type of leadership works when the
team is highly motivated and capable.

➢ leader calls on members to identify limits, explore possibilities, and make

decisions
