Julio will be meeting with a group of his employees to design a sensitive strategy for working with highly confidential information. To prevent groupthink, he should a. immediately state his preferred plan of action. b. encourage the group to be in agreement as they work together on the designing process. c. encourage critical evaluation of the plan as it is developed. d. discourage input from people outside the group.

C.) encourage critical evaluation of the plan as it is developed.

Explanation: Groupthink occurs when members of a group or association desire to conform and harmonize at the expense of making bad or irrational decision. Where Groupthink exists, members do not want to raise negating views of others so as not to cause disharmony. If Julio immediately states his preferred plan of action or encourage the group to be in agreement during the process, then Groupthink will definitely surface, because with these strategy, group members will want to conform to the established plan. However, critical evaluation of input or suggestion made by members is encouraged as the plan is being developed, then that ensures that each member makes it's own contribution and assessment without striving to harmonize the group. This might help prevent Groupthink.
