The results show that there is still a communication gap between the management and members which has a fatal effect on Girl We Can communication, communication between the management and members is still not effective because of the lack of interaction carried out by the administrators in the Girl We Can WhatsApp group which causes a loss of sense of family and increases sense of individualism.
