During the meeting, the majority of Jensen's team members were in favor of the policies except Sandy. As a result, Sandy decided not to voice her concerns about the policy changes fearing negative consequences. This scenario illustrates the concept of groupthink.

Groupthink is based on the desire not to upset the balance/harmony of a group of people thinking about a situation, it is a phenomenon whereby a group of individuals reach a premature consensus on an issue without critical reasoning or evaluation of the consequences or alternatives in a bid to avoid dissenting views and opinion. It is a situation whereby harmony in a group is promoted more than critical and objective analysis of issues.
