What is groupthink? It is a situation in a team when the team members suppresses the opposing views of its members.  It is a originally a psychological phenomenon in which the desire for harmony is an irrational and dysfunctional decision-making outcome. This situation can give birth to controversial issues and this can even lead to loss of individuality and oneness among the team members. 

One more important thing is that you should never try to change a team member. Every person is unique to its team with unique and different ideas and ways of expression. Trying to change team members will only lead to resentment. Allow your team members to express their ideas freely and also listen to them actively and calmly. 

Never underestimate anyone or their capabilities. Everyone has unique capabilities and no one should   be rude to anyone. 

Sometimes conflicts can also be productive for a team by bringing up ideas from different people, and should not always be taken negatively. Just be open to ideas and let people express them freely.  

Conflicts are a part of team and handling them and resolving them is what is more important. 

" Peace is not absence of conflict, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means". 

- Ronald Reagan.
