UNDERSTANDING SHGS
WHAT IS A SELF HELP GROUP (SHG)? A small homogeneous group (similar socio-
economic conditions) Consists of 10-20 members Members should live in close physical
vicinity - the same village or neighbourhood,
Members should come together on a self-selection basis for sharing their common concerns, pool their own resources (both financial and non-financial) and are willing to work together for their personal, social, economic and political development.

SOME KEY FEATURES OF A GROUP Vision: Any group starts from a common
vision. The group functions well till the time a clear vision exists in the mind of each of the members and they see the group as a way to realize that vision.
Stake: All members of the group should have shared stake in the group. Higher the stake, higher will be the strength of the group.
Owning the Group: Members should own the group. The ownership comes as there is a joint vision shared stake.
![Page 16: Operational manual for SHG promotion 13 9-09 8 pm](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070522/58ee5c801a28abfd578b4673/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
SOME KEY FEATURES OF A GROUP INCLUDE Roles and responsibilities of members:
Each member should be very clear about her / his roles and responsibilities. They should be capable of executing that and comfortable with the responsibility distribution among members.
Leadership: Aspect of leadership is very important in a group. Many times natural leaders evolve in a group.
![Page 17: Operational manual for SHG promotion 13 9-09 8 pm](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070522/58ee5c801a28abfd578b4673/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
SOME KEY FEATURES OF A GROUP INCLUDE Decision-making: The decision-making in
the group is an important aspect. Groups having more democratic decision making systems leads to higher participation.
Conflict Resolution Mechanisms: Conflicts are inevitable in any group. Positive conflicts are better for group cohesion and are important to increase the bonding.
Norms and values of the group: Norms and values of the group are very important for their effective functioning. Instead of externally imposed norms, norms evolving during group processes may have higher ownership of group members on these norms.
![Page 18: Operational manual for SHG promotion 13 9-09 8 pm](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070522/58ee5c801a28abfd578b4673/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
GROUP FORMATION STAGES: Bruce Tuckman (1965) developed a 4-stage
model of group development:: 1. Forming: Members come together and form
the group. 2. Storming: A chaotic vying for leadership
and trailing of group processes 3. Norming: Eventually agreement is reached
on how the group operates and creation of group norms
4. Performing: The group practices its craft and becomes effective in meeting its objectives.
All groups including Self Help Groups pass through the first three stages before the performing stage. Length of these stages may vary for groups.
