“Forming” stage teams tend to be:
Unclear and uncertain about what to do and how to behave
Polite and quiet with cautious participation
Unfamiliar, tentative, hesitant, anxious or suspicious
Interested only superficially, with little in-depth listening
Worried about making a contribution and concerned about getting hurt
Ambivalent but dependent on the team leader or dominant personality
Uncommitted with little attachment and little work accomplished
