The lack of synergy amongst diverse elements within the closed system, the lack of control and the lack of output within the system may have contributed to the marginal results.

Identify and discuss instances of an aggregate mentality at work in this case.

Aggregate mentality is first witnessed amongst the subgroups recommendations within the task force whereby no new recommendations to the closed system are made. Whereas one group recommends the taking up of total quality management and another recommends a return to the basics, no effort towards the overhaul of the system is made.

In the past, I have participated in several unsafe behaviors despite the fact that I knew that they were not a good idea.

I know that I should not speed: the speed limit ...

Historically it could be argued that there is a logical reason for this: only women can become pregnant and in the past this put even more pressure on women, because the risks of death in childbirth were enormously high and, because of the lack of effective contraceptive methods ( ...
