another person too intently. or has to wait to share an idea, they may forget

much about other people"s opinions and feelings to put forward their idea.

An effective alternatlve to group brainstorming Is 'lndlvldual brainstorming•.

Main groups
There are two main types of group.
Primary groups are clusters of people like families or
close friends where there is face-to-face interaction.
Primary groups are the main place where attitudes
and values are developed and sustained. A family is a
typical primary group.
Secondary groups are those in which members are rarely in direct contact. They
usually develop later in life and they don't last for a long time. These groups can be
found at work and school. Although group members may have a shared goal, the
purpose of the group is about the task instead of the relationships. If a friendship
becomes more important than the task, the group becomes ineffective.
