Manage episode 510991635 series 3644496
Every leader faces it: the excitement of launching a new team, the friction of conflict, the comfort of finding a rhythm—and the disruption of inevitable change. These aren’t random events; they’re the four natural phases of team building.
In this episode of The Top Notch Leader Podcast: Empowering Leaders, Transforming Teams, we break down the cycle of forming, storming, norming, and reforming—and what it takes to guide your people through each stage with confidence. You’ll learn:
- How to set vision and expectations during the forming phase
- Why conflict in storming isn’t failure, but fuel for growth
- How to sustain momentum and accountability during norming
- And why reforming is your chance to re-energize and elevate your team
Whether you’re leading a brand-new group, taking over an existing one, or navigating change, this episode will help you recognize the season your team is in and lead them like a Top Notch Leader.
