In small groups, it is not productive to be stuck in entropy. Things won’t progress when the group is stuck in neutral. By providing new ideas and input, group work will move smoothly forward. After forming new thoughts to group mates, there needs to be some time to discuss it. Everyone else might want to ask questions and give some further suggestions. Group members need to come to a complete understanding of what was just said before moving onwards. When there is too much input and not time to digest the information, it is basically an overload of information. There might be a possibility of confusion and chaos among the group.
In equifinality, each individual in the group has their strengths and weaknesses. They use different ways to get things done in a small group environment. One person may have an abundance of ideas he/she is not afraid to share with the group. Another member might be more comfortable asking questions to gain a better understanding. Someone else is great at taking notes and reminding group members what topic was just discussed if things get off track. In a small group, there needs to be a good blend of characteristics to be successful.
