Select one aspect of group behaviour from the range of concepts and theories considered in Modules 1-3 of the course (eg, decision making, team building, power and politics, communication, etc).
On the basis of this aspect of group behaviour, compare and contrast the functional and dysfunctional behaviours of two groups in which you have active membership.
From this examination, argue a case (ie, explain and justify your conclusions) about how and why the groups may be considered similar or different and make recommendations aimed at improving these groups’ performance.
NB – In order to best relate your work in this assignment to real life experiences, choose groups that you are currently a member of and are active within. Use your experiences to illustrate the behaviours you are describing and the points you are making.
NB – It is important to do more than describe the two groups and the aspect of group behaviour you have chosen. Rather, you are expected to argue a case for considering the groups as either similar or different with respect to the chosen aspect of group behaviour and to justify a set of recommendations aimed at removing dysfunctional behaviours and enhancing functional behaviours.
