QUESTION

Week 4

Assignment and Guidelines
The Case Study for this week is Building a Coalition, which
appears on page 580 of the textbook.
Each student is required to analyze this week’s case study and
submit a two- to three-page paper addressing the key questions identified
below. Remember that all case studies present both too much and too little
information. There may be information presented that is not really relevant, and
there may be scant information about a key area. This analysis does require
interpretation of the information, and there is no one right answer; however,
you must explain and defend any assumptions you made, or conclusions resulting
from your analysis with citations from the text, or from the case itself. There
is no need to research outside sources for this paper.
Your papermustinclude the following labeled sections.

Description

Part I: Group Development

15

Identify and summarize the
stages of group development.Reflecting on the case and textbook
material, what stage is the group at now? How could an understanding of the
stages of group development have assisted the Woodson Foundation in building
a cohesive coalition? Support your conclusion with evidence from the case and
our text.

Part II: Problem Identification

30

Identify key problems.Identify primary and secondary
problems the Woodson Foundation is facing. Identify what the organization
should have understood about individual membership in teams in order to have
built group processes that were supportive of her groups’ goals. Do not
necessarily limit yourself to only team theory here. Plumb any concepts we
have covered to date if you feel they are relevant.

Part III: Retrospective Evaluation

40

Given that there is no one
perfect solution for this situation, identify, describe, and defend two
possible solutions to the primary problem(s).Clearly identify
and defend both courses of action. Identify and discuss specific steps needed
to implement your selections. Support your selections with evidence from the
case, the text, or weekly discussion. Remember that deciding on a course of
action entails envisioning and planning the steps to success. Be sure to
identify implementation steps for both possible solutions. Almost every
situation presented with relation to group dynamics and behavior can have
multiple avenues for remedy. It is important to develop the ability to
critically evaluate more than one alternative, and rationally identify pros
and cons of each. Presenting pros and cons for the identified alternative
solutions in a table format within the paper is acceptable.

Part IV: Reflection
