                                   cohesiveness. It is essential that teams move beyond this stage or they will never
                                   achieve high performance. The leader’s role is to encourage participation by each

                                   team member and help them find their common vision and values. Members need

                                   uncertainties and confl icting perceptions about team tasks and goals.
