Abstract Grouping is an essential element for the success of a corporate organization in the contemporary world of business. Groups formed for the mutual benefit of members, where every member contributes for the benefit of all, is one of the oldest social groupings formed since the civilization of humanity. Groups are formed with the ideology that two is better than one, thus implying that greater success is more likely to be achieved by two or more people as compared to the achievements of an individual. For a corporate organization to achieve greater success, groupings are essential for complementing the effective leadership of the corporate leaders, which is a key element for success. Susan Wheelan, the author of the book, Creating effective teams: a guide for members and leaders, defines groupings as the foundation tool for the development of effective teamwork in a corporation. The greatest advantage of corporate groupings is the ability to save time and enhance the quality of work output. Grouping facilitates the break down of complex tasks into simpler tasks that are assigned to individual members as opposed to an individual, handling the entire task in the case where grouping is not done. Groupings eradicate the likelihood of monotony in decision making whereby a leader makes decisions solely without consulting other individuals in an organization. This aspect enhances the feeling of belonging in the minds of the individual members of an organization. 1 Groups play a critical role in increasing the knowledge base of the leaders and their subordinates in an organization. 2 Given the complexity of work in the contemporary world, it is becoming hard for leaders to make decisions that affect the overall performance of an organization on their own.

However, many people do not like working in groups as they fear that groups are likely to waste time and complicate the decision-making process due to the high likelihood of disagreements arising from the members. An effective group calls for two crucial ingredients that include effective leadership skills and a good relationship with the members. Effective leadership skills are very necessary for the effectiveness of the group as effective leaders uphold the desire of the groups more than their interests uphold, and, thus they work hard towards the realization of the group objectives. Besides, they understand the will of the individual members and respect their opinions by handling them diligently. Failure by the group leaders to handle group members with respect and courtesy dims the chances of the group becoming a team. Wheelan defines a team as a group that has clearly defined goals and objectives where too much knowledge and skills are necessary for the accomplishment of complex tasks. Teamwork is a crucial ingredient for the success of a corporate organization, as complex tasks should be executed for the effectiv
