Zajonc states, “Synergy can take either a physical or a mental form. The physical presence of others is often arousing, so more work is accomplished. Even ants work harder when there is more than one on the job” (Henman). In the mental sense, synergy forms when a type of collective intelligence and shared memory begins to develop as the group matures. Now, reflect on your own experiences to explore how this concept applies in real-life group dynamics. · Describe a group experience where you observed a shift to synergy within your group. (Examples could include working at a human services agency, another occupation, serving on a committee, participating in a college or high school group, or even an experience with a group of friends.) · Describe this experience as vividly as possible, with plenty of detail and a thorough analysis of the contributions made by many group members to attaining synergy that you can recall. This assignment should consist of 350–500 words. While additional sources are not required, you must cite and reference the required reading in your work if you have integrated any thoughts, ideas, or quotes from the material.
