L.O. 1) Groupthink refers to a situation when the group members arrive at a decision without any critical reasoning and go on with the decision because every other person in the group agrees to do so. Groupthink is detrimental to an organization because it involves reaching a consensus without scrutiny and critical thinking. L.O. 2) Constructive feedback has positive connotations, while destructive feedback has negative ones. The former offers opportunities for the performer to improve and better in work, while the latter is only critical and highlights the wrong without suggesting improvement.
