Group and Team Communication

1. Group communication networks

NetworkStructure
ChainInformation passes sequentially, person to person
WheelAll communication flows through one central person
All-channelEveryone communicates freely with everyone else
CircleEach member communicates only with the two adjacent to them

All-channel usually gives the richest information flow but is hardest to coordinate; wheel is efficient for simple tasks but creates a bottleneck.
