Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon where members of a cohesive group prioritize consensus and harmony over critical thinking and independent evaluation of ideas. In groupthink, individuals may suppress dissenting opinions, conform to group norms, and engage in collective decision-making that overlooks alternative perspectives or risks. This can lead to flawed decision-making, poor judgment, and the failure to consider all available information or alternatives.
Consensus kills creativity. Beware of Group Think, where harmony stifles innovation. 🤝💡
