View the “Manager’s Hot Seat: Working in Teams – Cross-Functional Dysfunction” video case and then post a new thread to this discussion board that addresses the following:

• Consult Figure 13.1 in your textbook.  In which stage of group development is this team?  What factors in the video case lead you to believe this?  Be specific.
• What should Joe have done before, during and after the meeting to ensure the commencement of the project is successful?
• Consult Table 13.5 in your textbook.  What factors enhancing group cohesiveness were present in this scenario?  Which were absent?  Explain.
• Pass or fail?  Grade Joe on his management skills, techniques, and overall performance.  Be sure to include specific recommendations on how he could handle the next situation differently… or better.
