, Question 01
1.1.



Field theory, as formulated by Kurt Lewin, is a foundational concept in psychology that posits
behaviour as a function of both the individual and the environment. It suggests that individuals
and their surroundings are interdependent and that behaviour arises from the interaction
between personal characteristics and the social or physical environment. In the context of group
work, field theory underscores the significance of understanding how the group environment
influences individual behaviour and vice versa. It directs attention to factors such as group
norms, roles, communication patterns, and power dynamics, all of which shape the group's
functioning and outcomes. By considering the group as a dynamic system embedded within a
broader context, field theory provides valuable insights into group processes and facilitates
interventions aimed at enhancing group effectiveness (Forsyth, 2018).

1.2.



The authoritarian leadership style becomes relevant for group work in situations where
immediate decisions and clear directives are necessary to achieve goals or address crises
effectively. This leadership approach involves a leader who maintains tight control over the
group, makes decisions independently, and expects strict obedience from group members. It is
particularly useful in environments where quick action is required, such as military operations,
emergency response teams, or other high-stakes situations (Northouse, 2018).
