Forming - As the manager of project, it was duty of mine to divide the team members into
groups and make them to work in proper manner. These teams will include people who are
having various skills and abilities.

the team members (Mazzarol, and Reboud, 2020). It is responsibility of manager to control these

different groups.

the way of conducting business activities (Soni, 2020).
