5. Work Group - a permanent group of workers who receive direction from a designated leader.
6. Work Team (also called Self-Directed Work Team or Self-Managed Work Team) - an ongoing group of workers who share a common mission who collectively manage their own affairs within predetermined boundaries.
7. Quality Circle (today also under various other names) - a group of workers from the same functional area who meet regularly to uncover and solve work-related problems and seek work improvement opportunities.

Out- group
• An out-group is a social group towards which an individual feels contempt, opposition, or a desire to compete. Members of out-groups may be subject to out-group homogeneity biases, and generally people tend to privilege ingroup members over out-group members in many situations.

Social Groups
• While all groups will have both social and task dimensions, some groups are predominantly social in their orientation. Examples of these groups would be families and social clubs. These groups provide for our safety and solidarity needs and they help us to develop self- esteem.
