Collective Intelligence Development in Business, Bouvard P., Suzanne H., 2016.

   First of all, let us start at the beginning: who is this book intended for? Generally, for any person who needs a group to reach their objectives; so, mainly people working in a business, whether it is private or public. That is the framework of our contributions. Peripherally, this book may also benefit people in charge of the development of a sports team. Lastly, it would also be possible to apply our comments to private affairs, like marriages and families.




The causes of Collective Unintelligence.
Ego is probably the foremost cause. We do not expect you to banish Ego, which would be absurd. Instead, we will explain how Ego can produce Collective Unintelligence. Ego becomes counter-productive when it is built

on the wrong bases, making it so that we always want to establish our power by demonstrating that we are correct, that we know more than others, and. as a result, that we are superior to others and supremely indispensable. "You cannot be right, because I am right!” From that moment on, it becomes a question of opposing the action of whoever is in a position to challenge our authority, regardless of the domain. In this case, any objection is seen as an aggression. In other words, this person will impoverish the group in order to distinguish themselves and reassure themselves of their inherent value. This method of affirming oneself in a Company is as common as it is destructive for the wealth of the system. The problem is even more critical because it is not simply individual and behavioral, in the sense that it is not an isolated and unfortunate event. These authoritarian behaviors find their source in the global education system and are still largely practiced today, contributing to a culture of innovation that is particularly fallible (see the notions of Knower/Leamer). For example, did you ever receive a good grade at school for asking a good question? School conditions us to always show that we know how to find answers, never that we know how to think about these questions intelligently, work in groups, be a contributor, help others to develop their own skills, tolerate and encourage difference, seek out alternatives and plurality, etc. Unfortunately, all throughout their professional life, many people endeavor to reproduce a teacher-student relationship. Fortunately, nowadays, some teachers are making a difference by putting more emphasis on group work in their teaching methods, for instance. On this subject, we think that tilings are still moving too slowly, and not definitively enough.
