- Definition(s)
- Gândirea de grup apare atunci când membrii grupului au o puternică dorinţă de consens şi coeziune şi sunt mai puţin interesaţi să ajungă la cea mai bună soluţie cu putinţă. Unele cauze ale gândirii de grup sunt izolarea grupului faţă de informaţiile externe, existenţa unui lider puternic şi dominant şi lipsa de proceduri de căutare potrivită de alternative şi asigurare a luării în considerare a tuturor părerilor. Prof. Paula Gabriela Șerban - by Veronica Costea
- Example sentence(s)
- Conceptul de gandire de grup a fost consacrat de psihologul Irving Janis in 1972 care a studiat cauzele esecului actiunii militare de la Bay of Pigs, orchestrate de CIA prin intermediul a 1400 de exilati, pentru rasturnarea de la putere a lui Fidel Castro. - ELF Consulting by Veronica Costea
