Human experience can only be understood across the landscape of
time. Yet organizational and groups research has traditionally paid
little attention to time as a construct. Over the last 15 years,
several authors have begun to study different aspects of group
temporality, but these contributions have been published in
disparate books and journals. As a result, no integrated set of
readings or unified perspectives has emerged, and little research
impact has been realized. The goal of this volume is to
consolidate, integrate, and build upon existing research to create
a framework for studying group temporality.
The book approaches group temporality through four lenses:
1. The study of how group processes, such as relationship and trust
building, information exchange, consensus building and performance,
evolve over time
2.The study of how group members internally synchronize their
activities over time and align them to meet the temporal demands of
a group's constituents
3. The study of how time pressure affects members' cognitive
functioning, interactions, and task performance
4. The study of how organizational context directs the nature of
group temporality - both enhancing and impeding group flow.
Together, the twelve chapters, authored by 27 leading groups
scholars, lead the way in solidifying current understanding and
highlighting critical new research directions
