Rethinking Groupthink
There are times when groupthink can positively impact project success.
Groupthink, identified by Irving Janis, occurs when group members prioritize consensus over critical evaluation, leading to suboptimal outcomes. Notable failures attributed to groupthink include the Challenger disaster and the Bay of Pigs invasion. However, in project management, groupthink can foster unity, expedite decision-making, and reinforce team values in high-pressure situations. Balancing its benefits with critical thinking and open dialogue is crucial. Effective project managers should encourage diverse perspectives to mitigate risks while leveraging groupthink’s advantages.
