Although the book did a great job with covering many scetions in quite a lot of detail, I wish the section on group communication had a little more oomf to it.
The table on page 7.4 does a great job at explaining the usual roles for groups who are working in a professional atmosphere. It does not talk about groups that are purely for social visits or even sports teams. When those groups come together the roles are very different and many of the roles noted are not even covered. There are many types of groups which I wish would have been discussed a little bit more to allow everyone more knowledge.
On sports teams there is the team captain and coach. Everyone else are usually just players and have a very important role, working well with others. In this instance a coordinator is not needed nor is a recorder. I feel the group roles will change depending on the type of group it is.
For groups which are strictly social, like a group of friends, the roles are also different and usually are more relaxed and perhaps may the group may not even have specific roles.
Other than this small part, the book and the discussion posts did a great job of covering many topics in detail and allowed myself to understand the topic better.
