Corporate Governance
Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon where a group of individuals reaches a consensus without critical reasoning or evaluation of the consequences. This often occurs in cohesive groups, leading to the suppression of dissenting viewpoints and an overall decline in the quality of decision-making. It can significantly affect board dynamics, particularly regarding size, diversity, and independence, as the presence of diverse perspectives is essential for healthy debate and decision-making.
