Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: B) A hidden agenda is an unexpressed plan that is harbored by one member of the group but unknown to the rest of the group. An example of a hidden agenda would be a team member who conceals his plans to depose the group leader and take over leadership of the group.

Answer: A
Explanation: A) When groupthink occurs, all group members tend to agree with the consensus. Groupthink arises when group members see little to gain and a lot to risk in expressing opinions that are not congruent with the prevailing views of the group.
