Case 12.2
Answer to Question 1
I have experienced Group Think within the team in which I worked in my previous
organization. The group of which I was a part consisted of diverse type of people who
belonged to different backgrounds and areas. Groupthink had thereby proved to be quite
useful for the effectiveness of the team. I had been a part of the group which was formed for
the purpose of completing a project which was provided to the company (Ashikali and
Groeneveld 2015).
Answer to Question 2
The groupthink based activities were able to play a major role in developing my team
building based skills in an effective manner. I was able to coordinate with the members of the
team and further solve issues which had occurred within the organization. The complex
issues and projects were thereby managed effectively by the members of the team. My
communication skills had improved in an effective manner while working within the team.
However, in some situations I had faced major issues when my group members did not agree
unanimously on a certain decision which had been taken by the group (Lewis and Tatli 2015).
Answer to Question 3
Diversity within a group is able to play a major role in the generation of new ideas.
The diverse group of people are able to provide different ideas based on different issues.
Proper identification of new opportunities is possible with the coordination of different types
of people who are a part of the group. This creativity levels of the group are also affected in a
huge manner by the diverse group of people. People who belong to different backgrounds are
thereby able to provide different types of ideas within the operations of the group
