In the example, four unit groups have been created in the global root group, and each of those four unit groups contain groups. The unit group Gamma has been selected, and indicates it has two subgroups, Lab and Operations. The Unassigned global group will contain any units that are not assigned to another global unit group.

Three personal unit groups have been created. The ProjectA and ProjectB unit groups do not have subgroups. The ProjectC unit group has one or more subgroups.
