A good example could be:
A group of teenagers are hanging out on a Tuesday night. One person suggests going to a concert late at night. A few other members of the group think also think it would be fun. The one or two members of the group who don't want to go, are reserved, and go along anyway. Although the two members want to go on Friday night instead, they don't want conflict, and so, the other members think that they want to go too.
Groupthink will cause this group to make a possibly bad decision, and the two members to be unhappy.

Genuine consensus
Self-censorship
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.
In a work team, characteristics of groupthink may manifest as a strong pressure to conform to the group's viewpoint, a tendency to discourage dissenting opinions, an illusion of invulnerability or unanimity, and conformity to a unified decision without critical evaluation. These traits can lead to a lack of creativity and alternative perspectives, resulting in suboptimal decision-making.
