Informed by the research of Bruce W. Tuckman and Mary Ann C. Jensen, over 100 subsequent studies, and Scott M. Graffius’ first-hand professional experience with, and analysis of, team leadership and performance, Graffius created his ‘Phases of Team Development.’ It’s a unique perspective and visual conveying the five phases of team development — Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing, and Adjourning. It’s also inclusive of a graph showing how performance varies by phase, as well as the characteristics and strategies for each phase.

Leaders of teams — Project Managers, Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, DevOps Leads, and others — can apply the information to help handle challenges or issues experienced by teams. By doing so, they’ll advance the teams’ (and their own) happiness, productivity, and success.

Graffius’ ‘Phases of Team Development’ work is featured and used by businesses, professional associations, government agencies, and universities around the world. Examples include Yale University, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), Torrens University Australia, UK Sports Institute, Adobe, Amsterdam Public Health Research Institute, Boston University, United States National Park Service, Bayer, Hasso Plattner Institute, University of Galway Ireland, American Management Association, UC San Diego - Rady School of Management, and many more.

Constructor Institute is added to the list. The Institute’s
MSc Computer Science, Software, Engineering, and Leadership (CSSEL) Handbook lists Scott M. Graffius’ ‘Phases of Team Development’ work (published at https://AgileScrumGuide.com) as a resource. The handbook references Graffius’ work at https://AgileScrumGuide.com three times.
