in a working group, while one member, nicole, shared another, beth, made a rude comment under her breath. nicole overheard beth and told her it really upset her. beth responded by telling nicole she was being too sensitive. in a slightly raised voice, nicole continued explaining why she was upset. beth told nicole to stop shouting and to calm down, which resulted in nicole becoming even more frustrated. how should the group leader respond?

Facilitate their interaction.

Explanation:

An effective group leader posses variety of traits and qualities which make the group members to follow him and his commands but as per my opinion, a group leader must posses the quality of " clear communication" whether it is verbal or written so that he can convey his messages to the team members more efficiently. In this case Group leader should facilitate the interaction between Beth and Nicole and assess the impact of conflict on the other members of the group. This will also let the members know that their group leader respect their opinions and also understand their issues and problems.

no questions on whether they are allowed that right
