Note When the owner of a Chatter group is deactivated, the deactivated user still owns the group. But a user with the Modify All Data permission can assign a new owner for a public or private group. For unlisted groups, a user with the Manage Unlisted Groups permission can assign a new owner.

1. On the group’s detail page, click **Change Roles**.
2. To search for members, start entering a name in the search box.
    
    You can sort the list between **Managers** and **All Members**
3. Select the **Manager** checkbox for the people that you want to be managers.
    
    Customers who are group managers can see people who ask to join the group, even if they aren't in other common groups. They can also approve requests.
    
    To [change the group owner](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=experience.collab_group_editing.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "To change a Chatter group’s owner, edit group settings. Only the current group owner and people with the Modify All Data permission can change the owner."), you must own the group or have the right permission. Anyone with the Modify All Data permission can change the owner in public and private groups. Anyone with the Manage Unlisted Groups permission can change the owner for unlisted groups. To assign a new owner, click the **Group Settings** link next to the current owner.
4. Click **Done**
