If the primary task of a group is to make a decision or solve a problem, cohesiveness can lead to poor performance. Groupthink occurs when a tightly knit group is so cooperative that agreeing with one another's opinions and refraining from criticizing others' ideas become norms. For a cohesive group to make good decisions, it should establish a norm of constructive disagreement. In day-to-day work groups for which decision making is not the primary task, cohesiveness can enhance performance.
