Answer:

False

Explanation:

Groupthink is when a group of individuals reach a consensus without really weighing the matter, comsequences, or whether you can have other alternatives. Groupthink takes its cue from just desiring not to upset the balance of a group of people. This in no way does not describe the Motorola team that developed the Razr cell phone. They agreed on the objectives at hand and on the best approach to solve the problem.

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In management, groupthink is just the opposite, and it is actually bad for work groups and team work. Groupthink is a negative psychological phenomenon that takes place in many different places: schools, work, sports clubs, families, etc. It basically happens when group members feel such a strong need to belong in the group and not be considered part of the outgroup, that they will accept whatever decision the leader makes or imposes. Individual members are afraid to think differently and they will not even dare to criticize any decision made by the leader because they fear the negative consequences of not obeying or complying with the group's norms.

So in this case, since the team that was in charge of developing the Razr phone was successful, then we can assume that every team member was important and participated in the project. Even though it is possible that the team members shared many ideas and values, it is highly unlikely that a team were groupthink exists is able to develop something positive. Groupthink is related to a very authoritarian leadership style, which doesn't really stand out for creativity.

Why are supply and demand curves sloping in opposite directions?
Aliun [14]

The first law of demand states that as price increases, less quantity is demanded. This is why the demand curve slopes down to the right. Because price and quantity move in opposite directions on the demand curve, the price elasticity of demand is always negative.
