A traditional work Group has how many people?
A
1
B
2
C
3
D
4
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Between 4 to 9 people should work in a team for optimal success. Smaller teams are prone to more delays and skills/knowledge gaps, whereas larger teams often lack cohesion, efficiency, and accountability. Research has shown that the most productive teams consist of a happy medium of around 6 people.

Detailed explanation-2: -A traditional workgroup is a group of people working together in order to achieve a common goal, and they have shared responsibilities. In a traditional workgroup, group members do not have direct responsibilities and control over their defined work.

Detailed explanation-3: -Examples include project teams, ad-hoc teams, quality improvement teams, and task forces. Sometimes the team is formed to work on a goal as an adjunct to a traditional hierarchy in an organization. At other times, the team is designed to replace the hierarchy. Several roles help to keep a team operating smoothly.

Detailed explanation-4: -Selecting the right team members is critical. Ideally, teams should be small (not more than ten people) so that members can develop a high-level of connection and interdependence. Members need both technical expertise (including writing and presentation skills) and good interpersonal skills for working in small groups.
