[[File:Complex-Communication-single-group.gif|250px|thumb|right|As the number of group members grows, the number of connection lines is being enhanced quadratically]]
As the number of members in a group grows, the number of connections among between the members of the group getting will get higher quadratically. This is causing the slowing down of of coordination. If the group will use peer-to-peer equal terms deliberation, the amount of communication time will get bigger quadratically, thus sending the group to an a halt. To solve this, groups usually use unequal methods of deliberation and influence, like hierarchical organization.
The mathematical formula for the number of connection lines in a group is:
