Several different types of groups are described in this module’s readings. Describe a group that you might like to lead, including the type of group, its size, inclusion criteria, and whether it is open or closed. Identify the group’s purpose. What topics will be covered; how often will the group meet and for how long? What leadership styles and skills demonstrated in the course-embedded videos will be appropriate?
