Functional Theory of group decision making

Represents an important step in understanding the communicative conditions that need to exist for a group to reach a quality decision.

Lets be honest…

You might not get along with everyone in your group..

But the key to group success is COMMUNICATION!

Be sure to use counteractive communication which is a

positive type of communication and gets

everybody “back on track”

Because 5 brains>1 brain
