Encourage dissent by asking ‘what if?’ and ‘why?’ questions to challenge assumptions and the prevailing opinion, keeping groupthink at bay.
Why?
Groupthink happens when a team's desire for harmony and conformity overrides the individual's ability to think critically. Ideas become suppressed, and it can lead to flawed choices. Using dissent challenges opinions, assumptions and ideas to ensure you make the most effective solutions.
You know it’s working when:
You see more dissenting opinions
Assumptions get regularly challenged
You get more informed and effective solutions
