Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that occurs when a cohesive group prioritizes consensus over critical thinking, leading to poor decision-making. It often results in the suppression of dissenting viewpoints and the avoidance of realistic appraisal of alternatives. To conclude on groupthink, one should look for signs such as a lack of open discussion, the presence of a dominant leader, and the group’s tendency to ignore outside opinions. Recognizing and addressing these factors can help mitigate the risks associated with groupthink.
Irving Janis coined the term "groupthink" to describe the phenomenon where a group of people make irrational or problematic decisions because of pressures within the group to conform or maintain harmony.
When the decision of the group is not right due to pressure on the group that affects their moral judgment and mental efficiency is known as groupthink. The term was coined by Irving Janis in 1972.
