SORU:

What is the purpose of groupthink?


CEVAP:

Groupthink is an agreement-at-any-cost mentality that results in ineffective group or team decision making and poor decisions. It is associated with norms, and focusing too much attention on consensus. Many significant ideas may not be seriously considered. Initial conditions that lead to groupthink, its characteristics, and the types of defective decision making that result from it are shown in Figure 5.5. Groupthink does not necessarily end up with a poor decision but definitely increases the possibility of it. When good judgment and discussion are suppressed, the group might still have a chance. Nevertheless, to increase the possibility of a good decision, managers need to limit groupthink.
