"12 Angry Men" - Group/Team Dynamics
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. The premise of 12 Angry Men shows how human (mis)perception, ego, prejudice and close-mindedness holds a wide variance of potential harm. Brought together to deliberate the fate of an accused murderer, the jury learns a lot about their own shortcomings - and eventual enlightenment - throughout the process of reaching a verdict. The 1957 film was instrumental in demonstrating how a group of opinionated, angry men who refuse to believe there is any other viewpoint but their own can be damaging to a just outcome; only when they are guided by the collective components of group dynamics do they finally realize the danger of assuming everything is as it seems at face value and why analyzing situations beyond the obvious facts carries a tremendous weight in reaching the right conclusion. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
