Group dynamic and factions.



As the group becomes large enough, individuals start to from factions. A faction, left unchecked, can grow so powerful it takes control of the Leaders. by creating an enthusiastic and unifying in the group, factions become less desirable, which tightens the whole group.


In any group dynamic there will be struggle for power. there will be some form of group court, with an alpha leader at the top and subordinate leaders with whom people try to get close to. Understanding the court's dynamics is crucial. Be able to identify the types of courtiers, such as the intriguer ( Who appears loyal to the group, but is secretly accumulating their own power), The stirrer (Who hides their envy to cause conflict), The Gatekeeper (Who use their position to control the flow of information and isolate the leader).


The reality group: You want to create a healthy group dynamic instill a collective sense of purpose. You must capture and channel the social force that compels people to belong and to fit in. This cant be a vague purpose, it must be clearly stated and publicized. Assemble the right team of lieutenants. Your fear of delegating authority will be your biggest obstacle developing a team of lieutenants with the skill that you lack must be the very first thing you do. Let information and ideas flow freely. Communication is the lifeblood of any group. Encourage open discussion to build the members trust. infect the group with productive emotions. You should radiate a sense of determination that permeates the group. In the face of setbacks, you are the one that keeps pressing forward and solving problems. forge a battle-tested group. When faces with a crisis. you want to find out how tough a person is from the inside. Test the People in your team with some relatively challenging tasks and shorter deadlines that usual and see how they respond under pressure.
