b. Incorrect: This refers to an organizational structure where decision making is shared with staff.
c. Correct: Wicked problems is a term used to describe difficult problems that have multiple causes, some of which may not be known and are difficult to solve.
d. Incorrect: Vertical integration refers to an organization becoming larger by joining with another organization that is the supplier or purchaser of products or services of the organization.

Answer to Question 2

B
Groupthink occurs when the team's desire for harmony and consensus overcomes rational desires to
effectively analyze and assess a given situation. Maintaining a pleasant atmosphere and reducing or
eliminating the potential for conflict or the introduction of new ideas are some of the prime results of
this behavior. It is counterproductive to effective teamwork because it tends to stifle creativity, inhibit
innovative solutions, and reduce the potential for a psychologically safe environment.
