Abstract
Using a case study approach the purpose of this paper aims to create an
understanding for managers how their associates handle change after
the occurrence of a company re-organization. This understanding is
supported by the using Tuckman’s 5 steps to group formation to manage
new teams and create cohesion. This paper provides for a powerful
framework to create a cohesive, new team following a re-organization. It
is proposed that managers who have an understanding of group formation
and handling change will help their associates navigate through the rough
waters of a re-organization, resulting in a loss of associates. It is primarily
the line manager that will have the most influence on the cohesiveness of
the new team.
