12. Professional Development to Practice Significance of Team Norms  When all is said and done, the norms of a group help determine whether it functions as a high-performing team or becomes simply a loose collection of people working together.  Positive norms stick only if the group puts them into practice over and over again. Being explicit about norms raises the level of effectiveness, maximizes emotional intelligence, produces a positive experience for group members, and helps to socialize newcomers into the group quickly. ( Goleman, 1998)
