The Very Lack Of Opportunity The Group Faces Creates A Self-defeating Cycle And Puts Pressure On Members To Limit Their Aspirations.

Competition Has Never Been More Threatening Than It Is Now. Innovative Thinkers Challenge The Status Quo In Their Organizations. They Are Often Viewed As "troublemakers." They Threaten The Defenders Of The Status Quo. So Competition Within An Organization Can Also Be Brutal.
