Groups maybe both a boon (for example, statistically outperform individuals) and a bane (for example, take too long) of decision making. They can systematically outperform individuals. However, groups are also prey to systematic bias and organizational skewing.
Consider the systematic decision-making processes of your own organization. Respond to the following:
- What are the group decision-making processes and structures in place at your current or with a previous employer that were designed to eliminate bias, create structure, and cultivate consistently better decisions?
- Was the process successful? Why, or why not?
- How may the structure have facilitated organizational skewing?
Write your initial response in approximately 300-500 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use two sources.
