Answer: A
An effective group has a democratic group leader.
Social group work rests on democratic values, and the classic leadership studies of Lewin, Lippitt and White found that democratically led groups showed more satisfaction, cooperation and originality than autocratic or laissez-faire ones. A democratic leader shares decisions, encourages participation and helps members take responsibility, which makes the group effective.
Sub-groups can form in any group, but they do not make a group effective and may split it. Limitless freedom is the laissez-faire pattern that left groups disorganised in those studies, and obedient members belong to an autocratic group.
