A meeting was being held at a company, and was attended by five executives. A decision needed tobe made about the following year's marketing campaign. Paul, an outspoken and aggressive person, insisted that his ideas be followed since there could not be a better alternative. No one elsecontributed to the discussion, and Paul’s views were accepted. This group discussion suffered from:

a)domination.
b)goal displacement.
c)groupthink.
d)satisficing.
e)brainstorming

This group discussion suffered from DOMINATING.

Explanation: Dominating can be defined as an act of exerting an overwhelming guiding influence over something or someone by the use of superior authority or power.

Domination involves imbalances or asymmetries in power.

From the definition, it can be concluded that the group suffered from domination. Out of 5 people present in the meeting, only the idea of one person was accepted, this illustrates the idea that domination involves imbalances or asymmetries in power.

dear friend:

  i hope this letter finds you in soaring spirits and vibrant health. as you had expressed the wish to know about culture, traditions, and unity of india in your previous letter, in the following lines i have tried my best to give you glimpses of our culture, traditions, and unity. you will be amazed to know that our culture is the oldest culture in the world and the birth place of hinduism, buddhism, jainism, and sikhism. you won’t find any other culture as varied and multi-colored, multi-lingual as ours. each region has its own unique culture, traditions, language. there are 22 official languages in india.

  basically, india is a spiritual country with orthodox traditions. for example the people of india believe in traditions set by their wise forefathers. arranged marriages, joint-family system, universal brotherhood, vegetarianism, celebrating festivals such as diwali, holi, eid, etc., are the salient features of our culture and traditions.

  another unique aspect about our country is ‘unity in diversity’. in spite of the multi-lingual, multi-religious, multi-traditional, multi-cultural society, people live peacefully together, respecting one another’s views, cultures, traditions, and differences. i am sure you would love to visit india soon, and have a first-hand experience of the multi-colored culture. give regards to uncle and aunt. do visit india with your family and experience our hospitality.

your friend,
