Group dynamics is arguably one among the toughest topics because according to psychologists, groups cannot be studied through a unilateral approach.

In a group – be it at the work place or in the school setting – making decisions is difficult for the simple reason that establishing a consensus in group is a difficult idea (Levi, 2011).
