1) True
In a team, while all the members are doing their respective jobs but when the work done by all of them is combined or consolidated then a common goal or motive is reached.
2) False
While most of the strategic planning involves the top level management only but there are other tyoes of approaches like "Bottom-up strategic planning" too in which the strategic goals are set starting from the lower most management level employees
3) False
One on one communication is never a good idea for a virtual organisation as in this type of communication the rest of the employees are not able to get the information or are not kept upto date. It does not even promote learning across the organisation as there is no group intereactions. In contrast, a group interaction promotes more organisational learning.

Interpersonal | Figurehead Leader Liaison |
Informational | Monitor Disseminator Spokesperson |
