Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This scenario is an example of groupthink, where the team members are more focused on conforming to the group's opinion and avoiding conflict rather than expressing their own opinions and considering different options. Tina's silence might have contributed to the team's decision to move to Utah, which ultimately proved unsuccessful. If Tina had spoken up and shared her perspective, the team might have considered other options like Peru and made a better decision as a group.
