Communication and Team Decision Making

Part 1: Sharpening the Team Mind: Communication and Collective Intelligence

A. What are some of the possible biases and points of error that may arise in team communication systems? In addition to those cited in the opening of Chapter 6, what are some other examples of how team communication problems can lead to disaster?

B. Revisit communication failure examples in Exhibit 6-1. Identify the possible causes of communication or decision-making failure in each example, and, drawing on the information presented in the chapter, discuss measures that might have prevented problems from arising within each team’s communication system.

Part 2: Team Decision-Making: Pitfalls and Solutions

A. What are the key symptoms of groupthink? What problems and shortcomings can arise in the decision-making process as a result of groupthink?

B. Do you think that individuals or groups are better decision-makers? Justify your choice. In what situations would individuals be more effective decision-makers than groups, and in what situations would groups be better than individuals?

Return to this Discussion several times to read the responses to your initial posting. Note what you have learned and/or any insights you have gained as a result of the comments your colleagues made.

Discussion

Project description
Compare and contrast the two versions of “Where Did You Sleep Last Night.” Use your understanding of Chapter 1 and 2 to contextualize your comments. For the Nirvana

Note: the name of the book that have chapter 1 & 2 is ” Rockin’ Out ” Fifth edition

This week’s group discussion is designed to help you understand the importance of having appropriate conceptual and operational definitions in any study.  Thus, I’d like you to evaluate and discuss an opinion article written by Dr. Greg, where he gives his personal assessment of the study conducted by Saslow et al. (2013). In addition, please read another article, written by Righetti et al. (2013)Preview the documentView in a new window, which Dr. Greg cites to support his position.

I’d like you to focus and comment specifically on Dr. Gregg’s argument involving the study constructs.  Explain and address the following:

Dr. Greg’s conceptualization of empathy: he wrote the following “I hypothesized that the reason non-believers gave more in the study is that they don’t have as well-developed a set of principles and are more prone to emotional giving.  Believers, I guessed, would be more likely to be more consistently and reliably charitable as a matter of principle than non-believers.  I suggested that the study really showed that it was easier to emotionally manipulate agnostics/atheists into giving whether it did any good or not as opposed to believers who probably tended to give to causes they actually believed in and thought mattered.” In other words, Dr. Greg is questioning Saslow’s conceptualization and operationalization of empathy. Does he have a valid point?

Dr. Greg cited the study by Righetti et al. (2013) to support his claim that compassionate people lack self-control. Respond to his argument using the same study by Righetti et al. (2013).  Does the study support Dr. Greg’s claim?
