Groupthink Theory

Groupthink theory was created by Irving Janis in 1972. It is defined as " a way of deliberating that group members use when their desire for unanimity overrides their motivation to asses all available plans of action". This theory relates to many groups, for example every time I have a group presentation sometimes there is lack of impartial leadership and usually all the groups members suffer from stress; that everything is in order clear and coherent to the class and the teacher. Usually what groups should avoid is examine advantages and disadvantages, get together practice, and incorporate everyones idea to the presentation.
