Group dynamics form a basis for much group therapy. Politicians and salesmen may make practical exploitations of principles of group dynamics for their own ends.
Compare crowd psychology.
A group goes through four main phases: forming (pretending to get on), storming (knowing they don't get on and being angry), norming (getting used to each other) and performing (working in a group to a common goal). It should be noted that this refers to the majority of the group, but of course individuals in a group work different ways.
