Primary and Secondary Groups
There are fundamentally two types of groups that can be observed in
many contexts, from church to school, family to work. These two types
are primary and secondary groups. The hierarchy denotes the degree
to which the group(s) meet your interpersonal needs.
Primary groups meet most, if not all, of one’s needs. Groups that meet
some, but not all, needs are called secondary groups. Secondary
groups often include work groups, where the goal is to complete a task
or solve a problem. Secondary groups may meet your need for
professional acceptance and celebrate your success, but they may not
meet your need for understanding and sharing on a personal level.
Family members may understand you in ways that your coworkers
cannot, and vice versa.
