To avoid groupthink, (1) the team should have second-chance meetings, (2) the team should invite outside experts to listen to the rationale for the team's decision and critique it,

and (3) the team leader should express an opinion at the outset of the meeting to save time. Which statements are correct?
A) All three statements are correct.
B) Only statements 1 and 2 are correct.
C) Only statements 1 and 3 are correct.
D) Only statements 2 and 3 are correct.
E) Only statement 3 is correct.

Answer: B
Explanation: A) Incorrect. Statement 1 is correct. Second-chance meetings involve sleeping on the group's decision and revisiting it a day late. This helps bring a fresh perspective. Statement 2 is correct. Outside experts can see things that a cohesive group sometimes misses. Statement 3 is incorrect. Though it may save time to express an opinion at the outset of a meeting, the leader's opinion carries undue weight. Instead, the team leader should encourage open discussion of differing perspectives.
