DEFINITION OF A GROUP

A group is simply a collection of people. A group is defined as two or more people who are
associated with one another through social interactions. It is not necessary for the relationship
to be interpersonal. Group relationships based on ethnicity or gender, for instance, are more
psychological in nature.

People's social capital, which is described as one's richness in interpersonal relationships, is


influenced by relationships and groups.

WHAT IS GROUP DYNAMICS

The social process by which people interact and behave in a group environment is called group
dynamics. Group dynamics involves the influence of personality, power, and behavior on the
group process.

Group dynamics is a system of behaviors and psychological processes occurring within a social
group, or between social groups.

SPECIAL PROPERTIES OF A GROUP

The special properties of groups are illustrated by a simple lesson in mathematics, as in one
plus one equals three. This is a logical error in the world of mathematics. In the world of group
dynamics, however, this is rational. In a group there is no such thing as merely a composition of
two people. It is their relationship that makes it three.

TYPES OF GROUP
Formal Groups - refers to those which are established under the legal or formal
authority with the view to achieve a particular end result. Eg: trade unions.

Informal Groups - refers to aggregate of personal contact and interaction and network
of relationship among individuals. Eg: friendship group.

Primary Groups - are characterized by a small size, face to face interaction and
intimacy among members of the group. Eg: family, neighborhood group.

Secondary Groups - characterized by large size individual identification with the values
and beliefs prevailing in them rather than cultural interaction. Eg. occupational
association and ethnic group.

CHARACTERISTICS OF GROUP

● It is composed of two or more people.


● They interact with one another.
● Share some common ideologies.
● See themselves as a group.
● They must have interactions.
● Interaction is the pattern of mutual influence.
● They must have the structure and have the same goals.
○ Structure is a stable pattern of relationships.
1. Roles
2. Norms
3. Inter-member relations
○ Goals are the reason for existence.
1. Perceived groupness
- see themselves as one.
2. Dynamic interdependence
- The members are active.
● Lastly, they need motivation in order to attain satisfaction in a group.
○ Motivation focuses on personal needs which - when attained - lead to
satisfaction.

KINDS OF FORMAL GROUPS

These are divided into the following:

1. Command Groups are specified by the organizational chart and often - composed of a
leader and the members who directly report to him.
Example: an academic department consisting of a chair and faculty members.
2. Task Groups - Consist of people who work together to achieve a common task.
Members are brought together to accomplish a narrow range of goals within the
specified time.
Examples: Ad hoc committees, project groups, standing committees
3. Functional Groups - are Created by an organization to accomplish specific goals within
an unspecified time frame. They continue to function even after their goals have been
achieved.
Example: A sales and marketing department.

KINDS OF INFORMAL GROUPS

Informal groups emerge as a result of sociological pressures that drive people to communicate
and engage with one another. Because humans are social beings, individuals who work
together are obliged to create social groupings. We socialize for a variety of reasons, including
reducing job monotony and combating psychological tiredness and boredom. We just enjoy the
company of people and develop a true love for them.
Because there are no laws or regulations controlling a group, informal group dynamics are
difficult to manage. We build them naturally when we meet folks who share our values. Most
informal gatherings are tiny, which allows for animosity. People who are not part of the groups
frequently feel excluded or uneasy. Furthermore, because informal groupings are unstable,
personal differences are more prone to emerge. Nonetheless, they have the ability to impact an
organization's effectiveness.

1. Interest Groups- Typically, these organizations survive longer than normal casual
groupings. Interest groups' aims and objectives are unique to each group and may not
be tied to company goals and objectives.
2. Friendships Groups- are created by people who have common interests, political
opinions, religious values, or other relationships. Members appreciate being in one
other's presence.
3. Reference Groups- are made up of individuals who are examined for social validation
and social comparison. Individuals can defend their beliefs and values through social
validation, whereas social comparison allows them to evaluate their own behavior by
comparing themselves to others.
