INTRODUCTION
Understanding the nature and types of groups, Recognizing the assets
and liabilities of groups.
DEFINING AND
CLASSIFYING GROUPS
Group
Two or more individuals, interacting and
interdependent, who have come together to achieve
particular objectives.
TWO TYPES OF GROUP 4
1. Formal Groups
Formal groups are designed to unite people so that they can work
together to achieve a given goal. They are usually formed by an
organization and include a hierarchical structure. Basically, this means
that everyone has a clearly defined role in the group.
Command Group
Which are formed by members who all report to the same person. For
instance, a group of employees whom all worked for and reported to
the same manager would be considered a command group.
Task Group
Which consists of people who are all brought together to complete a
certain task. Task groups can be developed both within and outside of
a formal work environment and are only intended to last until the task
is completed.
Committee
Which consists of a group of people who are elected. Usually,
committees come from within a larger group and are formed in order
to tackle particular issues or make collective decisions.
