Groupthink
In contrast to the reading passage, which emphasize the advantageousness of group decision making, the lecturer focuses on pointing out misconceptions and possible unforeseen consequences of the practice. The professor disagrees with the text about the flawlessness of the approach providing several examples of situations where group thinking led to disastrous consequences.
First of all, the passage claims that the decision brought up by a group of individuals has broader view on the objective and more varied in-depth approach. The orator, nevertheless, states that such an approach might have a malignant effect, when a member of the group convince all the members with an irrational idea that leads to horrible outcomes.
The second point that the professor makes has to do with the feel of invulnerability, which may affect the work done by the group. According to the passage, responsibility in groups is spread around so the members don’t feel afraid, however, the lecturer claims that such effect may has the other side which can cause harm to solving problem.
Finally, in contrast to the reading passage’s claim that group discussions have the advantage of encouraging motivation in team members, professor points out that members of the group may reassure each other with the correctness of their though, even thought, the idea was initially wrong. In support of that argument professor provides an example of car company design group, whose new car design was considered excellent by the group members but turned out to be a failure.
