I normally pick a
big concept or topic that I found interesting and useful. But for this week's
there is something else that I found interesting, it's rather small and just a
statement. For the weirdest reason is stuck with me. That is, without the small
groups, big groups would not exist. Small groups are needed to make and run
bigger groups. For instance a big corporation such as Google or Cisco would not
be as powerful as it is today without the small groups. To define those small
groups exactly, I mean the janitors/cleaners, the delivery/messengers, the
office assistants, accountants, and many more. This small fact helped me
realize how much of an importance small groups are in everyday life. It also
allowed me to have much more respect for the little groups. In a communications
study aspect, the small group looks like it may be the most important part. So
in the scheme of things, it's not just a statement, big groups truly would not
exist without the small groups.
Hi Jinxx21, I found your response very interesting. You decided to discuss a statement from our text. I thought you made a good point with why you chose to express your thoughts about how “big groups would not exist without small groups.” I can understand why you would agree with this because it seems that small groups contribute greatly to the whole picture. Some do not have the most important jobs, but what they do contribute is important just the same. I find this to be true because where I work, everyone’s role is important no matter how big or small. Our collaboration contributes to the success of the whole company, and I think it was important that you decided to discuss this.
