Group-Based Hierarchies

Group-Based Hierarchies are organizational structures where members are classified into different levels or categories based on shared traits or roles. Think of it like a company’s organizational chart: at the top are leaders, followed by managers, then employees. Each level has authority and responsibilities, creating a clear order. These hierarchies help groups coordinate tasks efficiently, ensure accountability, and clarify relationships within the organization. They are common in workplaces, social groups, and even in community or social systems, providing a structured way to manage complex interactions among members.
