Your assignment is to prepare and submit a paper on the concept of group communication.
We tried to know each other and we were all surprised that Yanelli and Cassy shared a
birthday. We selected roles based on responsibilities that each person felt comfortable with.
Due to her eloquence, Cassy took the role of conducting interviews while the other duties
were shared out.In the storming stage, all members gave their ideas on how they wanted
the project to be undertaken (30). Akeem was very passionate in advocating that we should
go to the beach on Fridays to conduct the interviews so as to have free time on the
weekends. On the contrary, Vilma and I felt that weekends were more appropriate since
there would be more people. Yanelli and I were of the opinion that any day would be
appropriate as long we had time. The other pertinent question was on the choice of beach. I
proposed that we choose a beach that was in close proximity for ease of access and cost
reduction. Akeem was of the same idea but he wanted the place to be fancy. The other
members wanted us to select a fairly distant place to allow us to explore new
experiences.The establishment of group norms was also clear in our group (35). Akeem
dropped his quest to spare all weekends for personal matters but proposed a more flexible
arrangement. We eventually agreed that interviews would be conducted over the weekends
and informal group meetings would take place any day after a twenty-four hours notice.
After a heated debate, we decided to compromise on the choice of the beach by selecting a
location that was not so far but not so near.
