Part A

Think about a popular TV show that you watch that focuses on small-group dynamics. This could be a popular TV drama, focused on the workplace, for example.

Discuss in your Learning Team 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 ideas for your team. As a 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:

• The scope and functions of the small group within the organization, such as idea generation, event planning, process or creation, evaluation, and quality control

• The effectiveness of each member's communication styles. What are the opportunities for improvement?

• The type of leadership within the small group, such as fixed, rotational, or ad hoc

• How the group leader and members communicate during group meetings

• Communication obstacles, such as groupthink tendencies, credibility issues, and insufficient listening
