You don’t have to write about groupthink I was just showing the two concepts for a better understanding. 

groupshift A change between a group’s decision and an individual decision
that a member within the group would make; the shift can be toward either conservatism or greater risk but it generally is toward a more extreme version of the group’s original position. 

Groupthink and Groupshift

Two by-products of group decision making have the potential to affect a group’s ability to appraise alternatives objectively and arrive at high-quality solutions.

The first, called groupthink, relates to norms. It describes situations in which group pressures for conformity deter the group from critically appraising un- usual, minority, or unpopular views. Groupthink is a disease that attacks many groups and can dramatically hinder their performance. The second phenom- enon is groupshift, which describes the way group members tend to exaggerate the initial positions they hold when discussing a given set of alternatives and arriving at a solution. In some situations, caution dominates and there is a con- servative shift, while in other situations groups tend toward a risky shift. Let’s look at each phenomenon in detail.
