The Ways of Winning in Small Groups
Surrender
the battle for control and fight a successful battle for order. Gary Sweeten
Many
group leaders attempt to deal with immature, broken or untrained group members
with confrontation, interruption and healing. Others simply allow the
dysfunctional member take over the group process. This is disastrous for the
person, the leader and the group. Develop and educate members about a
consistent flow or group process and remind them of it every time you meet. It
will be the group’s skeleton.
