Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The members in this scenario have a shared interest in reducing waste and making their company more eco-friendly, making them an interest group. They are not a formal or command group as they are not assigned by the company to work together, and they are not a friendship group as the primary focus is on a specific goal rather than purely social dynamics. They are also not a virtual group as they are meeting in person on a weekly basis.
