B 6025 WEEK 4 DISCUSSION
Discussion
The
Power of Groups
Groups may be both a boon
(for example, they statistically outperform individuals) and a bane (for
example, they take too long) of decision making. While they can systematically
outperform individuals, groups are also prey to systematic bias and
organizational skewing.
Consider the systematic
decision-making processes of your own organization. Using the readings for this
module, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet,
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?
·
Were
the processes successful? Why, or why not?
·
How
may the structure have facilitated organizational skewing?
By the due date assigned, post your response to the appropriate Discussion
Area. Through the end of the
module, review and comment on at least two peers’ responses.
Write your initial
response in 300–500 words. Your response should be thorough and address all
components of the discussion question in detail, include citations of all
sources, where needed, according to the APA Style, and demonstrate accurate
spelling, grammar, and punctuation
Do the following when
responding to your peers:
·
Read
your peers’ answers.
·
Provide
substantive comments by
o
contributing
new, relevant information from course readings, Web sites, or other sources;
o
building
on the remarks or questions of others; or
o
sharing
practical examples of key concepts from your professional or personal
experiences
·
Respond
to feedback on your posting and provide feedback to other students on their
ideas.
