Description The present study was conducted among the SAF -Theeramythri activity groups of Kerala across
the nine coastal districts which focused on identifying the perception of the leaders and followers of
the activity groups in its functioning. The benefits gained by the leader as well as the follower, short
comings in the current functioning, group cohesiveness, nature of leadership existing in the groups
and the future requirements were discussed in the study. The results indicated that majority of the
respondents have economically benefited from SAF after joining the activity groups. The Pearson
correlation indicates that the relationship between the leader and follower is high for the decision
making (0.41) and least for conflict management (0.29) which has a huge impact in the effective
functioning of an activity group. The Garette ranking results go in tune with correlation analysis
entrusting the high interrelationship of the members and the followers of the activity groups.
Moreover the study identified the constraints in the current functioning of activity groups and
suggest for suitable interventions by installing effective confidence building mechanisms among
group members.
