In this paper, the researcher would like to describe on how 5 co-workers came to be a group, in this case, the researcher would describe the way the group was formed until it disbanded, showing the life cycle of a group. Of course, as the 5 co-workers preliminary formed their group, they passed through the anticipatory stage. However, in forming a group, there would be the possibility that there would be deviants, which is why the team decided to establish rules and the norms that the group mates are to follow. After setting the rules, the group then passed by the antecedent stage, wherein group socialization played a big part to make them understand one anothers thoughts and ideas. It is also in this process wherein the 5 co-workers started to feel the group climate as they get along.
