Abstract

Insights on behaviorally-based group profiles of teams in meetings help us identify why some groups outperform others while accomplishing their meeting goals. Previous studies have examined individual behaviorally-based profiles in meetings, however, group profiles may be more complex. Study one establishes the existence of group profiles in CBA finance and banking teams, where students are expected to effectively function within a work-related team (AACSB Goal 5, Objective 1). Teams may belong to one of four distinct group profiles including: story-telling, well-organized networking, solution-focused, or problem-focused profiles. Study two confirms these findings and indicates that group profiles are indeed linked to group performance outcomes. These findings highlight the importance of behavioral processes for explaining differences in group performance.
