The term ‘Groupthink’ was coined by Irving L. Janis and was published in book named ‘Groupthink’. While finding the answer to why there are times when a team at one time reaches a great decision and one some other time reaches an unsuccessful decision, Irving L. Janis found that the reason behind the group leading to poor decisions was lack of opposing viewpoints and inability to analyse all the alternatives.
