The more "personal" the45. effects of the change, and the more likely people will withdraw from the group46. process. A second danger of group communication is that for one or two47. particularly vocal and negative people can set the tone for the group, and then foster48. unproductive negative discussion out. While expressions of concerns about change49. are healthy, the "doom-sayer" can cause this process to become destructive. So for50. this reason, group communication needs to be managed with skill and expertise.51. Sometimes an external facilitator person is necessary.
