  15. Observation Instruments • Progress Report on Group Interaction

  16. Review of the Systems Approach • Analyzing Virtual Group Processes — Emerging Research • Group processes in virtual groups appear to mirror those of face-to-face group interactions in many cases, but continued research is needed to investigate the gentle nuances between the two group formats. • It is commonly thought that virtual groups can lack effectiveness in development of group member relationships etc.

  17. Review of the Systems Approach • Analyzing Virtual Group Processes — Emerging Research • Balthazard, et al. (2004) studied the differences in processes between virtual teams and face-to-face teams. • It was concluded that it is true that virtual teams are more likely to suffer due to lack of sufficient relationship building between group members, resulting in trust and cohesion issues.

  18. Review of the Systems Approach • The most effective way to behave either as a leader or as a participant in a group varies with the type of group and the group’s objectives. • The most important thing for you to do to improve competencies in small groups is to participate in numerous different types of groups and to get feedback on your performance.
