Group Decision-Making and Team Collaboration

Hassan Qudrat-Ullah

Chapter Chapter 10 in Mastering Decision-Making in Business and Personal Life, 2025, pp 313-362 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter explores effective group decision-making techniques and strategies for overcoming common pitfalls. It details methods such as the Delphi technique, nominal group technique, brainstorming, consensus building, and participative system dynamics modeling (PSDM), highlighting their roles in enhancing collaborative decision-making. The chapter addresses challenges like groupthink and emphasizes the importance of encouraging dissent, leveraging diverse perspectives, and integrating real-time data. Successful case studies from companies like Google, IBM, and the U.S. Army illustrate practical applications. A dynamic perspective is provided, focusing on adaptive frameworks, continuous learning, and innovative technologies to improve group decision-making processes.
