group was a groupthink victim partly due to the actions of the leaders. Lumsden, Lumsden and Wiethoff (2010 p. 284) add that when the leader pushes the group toward consensus, without seeking input or alternative perspectives, members quickly learn that their qualms about the group’s direction are not to be voiced.

In hindsight, this student’s team needed to believe it was ONE well-oiled unit.

Yet, somehow the leadership team had it out for this student’s group; at least that is what this student’s team members recognized to be happening.
