Herding can impact a group outcome in different ways and can lead to functional or dysfunctional teams resulting in optimal, sub-optimal outcomes, or no outcome. The authors study herding in context of teams with a measurable outcome and discuss how they impact group performance. They use Conradt's model of three level of decision making with group member's characteristics (incompetent, indifferent, imitator, and interactor) to study herding. The study indicates that herding is dynamic and develops as levels of communication changes with incompetence and indifference of members. The study also reveals that partial herding can occur where some group member(s) herd while others continue the work. This study is significant since it includes indifference and incompetence as two new factors that can lead to herding possibly leading to sub optimal results. Future research areas are also discussed.
