Inviting experts who are not members of the group to practice sessions and provide critical feedback can help prevent groupthink by introducing diverse perspectives and challenging the group's assumptions. Assessing group members' opinions frequently using show-of-hand voting may discourage dissenting views and lead to conformity. Creating a unified, cohesive membership may also lead to groupthink. Taking the group to a cabin in the mountains may reduce distractions but does not necessarily prevent groupthink.
