  • Consensus decision-making is just this side of groupthink, and groupthink is a dangerous way to make decisions. When people are so committed to reaching consensus, they tend to put harmony and cohesion above critical evaluation and analysis. They set aside their own thoughts, refrain from raising questions or exposing potential pitfalls rather than to “slow the group down.” But, this leads to irrational or problematic decisions. Group think can transform a team of bright, creative, independent thinkers into a group of people nodding and smiling while keeping their very best ideas to themselves.

    This was fantastic! I used this old Candid Camera video in my psych class when we talk about Social Psychology, but it has since been removed from CZcams due to copyright! :(

    If only this had hit the CZcams scene much more powerfully 4 years ago! Think how many people wouldn’t have caved.

    Wonder with how much confidence this applies to social media and community think. To the point where objective truth or opposite views can be viewed in disgust and complete disapproval.

    It's funny that it's being called a dangerous way of thinking in this video but in practice someone who doesn't adhere to social norms, even silly ones, is going to be said to be "on the spectrum," or even worse, deviant or psycho/sociopathic.

    A humorous way to convey group think and this approach to decision-making that is so prevalent in human behavior across society.

    It's funny until it gets political.

    Well done!
    Methinks you practice.. as opposed to simply winging it.
    Kudos.

    Interesting theory, but it doesn't work in the long-run. Preventing group think must be constantly administered by people of certain educational backgrounds and skills which will naturally degrade over time. Systems are meant to collapse after a time so the only real solution is to harvest skillsets and plan for business succession.
