Description
Summary:This paper examines the occurrence of a group and organization regression by using Bion's group theory that distinguishes two forms of group functioning, as a work group and as a basic assumption group. The effects of a group and organization regression on corporate security are very negative and, therefore, knowledge of this phenomenon is important for the timely recognition and prevention of its development, as well as for intervention in reinvestment in the functioning of the working group. By looking more closely at the specificity and context in which Bion's theory originated, and the basic tenets of the theory, we came to indicators that differentiate between these forms of group functioning, namely: cooperation, maintaining contact with reality, openness in speaking up opinions, task motivation. If the listed indicators are present, we are dealing with the functioning of the working group, and if there is a doubt that the basic assumptions group is active.
