Describe the four common problems individuals must overcome to improve group performance. How can these problems be avoided?

What will be an ideal response?

1, Hypervigilance involves frantically searching for quick solutions to problems, going from one idea to another out of a sense of desperation. It can be avoided by keeping in mind that it is best to work thoroughly through one decision, reassuring the decision maker about his/her skill. 2, Unconflicted adherence results from decision makers sticking to the first idea that comes into their heads without evaluating it more deeply. To avoid this, decision makers should think about the difficulties inherent in their ideas, consider different ideas, and consider special and unique characteristics of the problem. 3, Unconflicted change happens when people change their minds too rapidly and adopt the first new idea. This can be avoided by encouraging decision makers to consider the risks and problems of adopting that solution, think about the good points of the first idea, and review the strengths and weaknesses of both ideas. 4, Defensive avoidance occurs when decision makers avoid working at the task at hand. This can be prevented by not procrastinating, avoiding disowning of responsibility, and not ignoring potential corrective information.
