Apollo 13
Apollo 13
When the movie begins you can see that there is a barbeque going on at Jim Lovell’s house. You could draw the conclusion that Jim has worked with the others before at some point. This is where the forming begins Jim invites other astronauts over to watch the first landing on the moon. All of these men have a common goal, which is going to the moon. This is also Jim’s interpersonal need to be around others who want to go to the moon as well.
The next phase is the storming phase. We know that people don’t always get along in groups. One great example of this is when Jim, Fred and Ken are in the simulator running case scenarios. They are done with the last case scenario in the simulator Jim and Fred are ready to go home. Ken tells them that he wants to run it again. Jim and Fred think that they should go home and rest that they will have time another day to practice to get it perfect. Because of Jims individual goal, getting to the moon he gives into Ken’s request to do the simulations again. The storming phase is the most difficult phase because this is where groups usually fall apart.
Instead of falling apart groups will enter the norming phase of the model. In the movie Fred and Jim agree to run the simulations again with Ken so that he will feel better about his place in the group. This is also an area where each member becomes clear where they belong in the group. Jim is faced with having to replace Ken with a new member when he finds out that Ken may have measles. Jim doesn’t want to replace Ken in the team because at this point they are very much in tune with each other. Jim’s role as caption of the mission he has to deliver the news to Ken. As the team goal of getting to the moon this is Jim’s job to replace him and get the rest of the group to the moon. This decision also brings the group back to the storming stage in the phases because there is conflict with Jack Swagert. For the interest of the mission Jim, and Fred work with Jack because
