Crisis Management and Communication
Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that occurs when a group of individuals prioritize consensus and harmony over critical analysis and independent thinking. This often leads to poor decision-making because members suppress dissenting viewpoints, fail to consider alternative solutions, and become overly confident in their collective decisions. In crisis situations, groupthink can severely hinder effective decision-making and ethical considerations.
