Communication Group Analysis Paper

For the past eight weeks I have worked closely with a group of five other people with the sole intent of being able to experience what it was like working in a group and being able to analyze the work being done and how it was accomplished. For the most part I would like to say that it was a positive experience, but at the same time it was a very difficult thing to accomplish.

I would like to start by discussing the different personality types within the group. The group was made up of six people and out of the six, five were SJs (Kelly, Kristin, Nakun, Nat, and Rafae) and only one was a NF (Corinne). The SJs very much followed the "Guardian" example by assigning tasks and having them completed and done on time. While in the meantime, the NF/ "Idealist" was great for coming up with ideas, but very poor on implementing and completing the things that needed to be done. This made things very frustrating and hard to deal with especially when it was time to complete our project and everything needed to be in.

Corinne was still coming up with ideas for our project in the seventh week of it. We finally had to tell her that the ideas were great but there was no time to expand the project further and we n


One thing positive I do have to say about Corinne was that she did take criticism well. When we discussed the renovations to Cortelyou Commons, we all had the same ideas about what it would look like. We took a walk through the Commons and talked about what would go where and the different things that we put into the actual plan. Corinne had a lot of good ideas, but we knocked out most of them because of the structure of the building and the cost it would take to do them. She was very good at accepting our reasoning and played "Devil's Advocate" for our group. Actually, we all played "Devil's Advocate" at one time or another.

After a while, I felt comfortable with the other group members to say what I thought before "checking" with Kelly first. I do have to say that I felt the group respecting my opinion a lot. Perhaps they were just being nice, but because of the respect I felt from them it made me respect them more.

As far as stress in the group, I only felt it at the end. I think that was bound to happen though. Most people were getting nervous with Corinne not having her things in and Rafae not showing up for our final meeting. Like I said earlier, with Corinne we just figured out that we would have to do it ourselves and Rafae had a good enough excuse, so we let him slide. I felt very stressed out when we divided up the presentation. I felt that I wasn't getting credit where credit was deserved, but Kelly being the person she is stood up for me and the problem was solved.

The way we set up the schedule was like a building block. We couldn't move onto the next level unless the first was complete. This helped us because it made us not fall into the trap of "Group Think." After one part was completed, we would discuss it and if we agreed on it we would move on and if we didn't we would revise it, so that everyone's opinion would be taken into consideration. Our group was very open-minded and took suggestions well. The whole decision making process was easy for us too, probably because most of us were SJs and we knew we had a deadline to make.

I liked playing "Devil's Advo
