Group norms are decisions made by the group that influence how people communicate with one another. Every group decides on their own norms. Norms must be decided on by consensus, which is how we are going to go through our first consensus-based decision. Folks can't have reservations about norms: they must be accepted by the entire group for them to work. | |||
Every group develops its own customs, habits and expectations for how things will be done. These patterns and expectations, or group norms as they’re sometimes called, influence the ways team members communicate with each other. Norms can help or hinder a group in achieving its goals. | Every group develops its own customs, habits and expectations for how things will be done.
