    Group think bias

    Explanation:

    Groupthink bias occurs when people believe in something because other people believe in it. It is when everyone comes to the same conclusion concerning a matter.

    In the meeting everyone agreed with the CEO, this is an instance of groupthink.

    Anchoring bias is when a person's decision is overly anchored on an initial information given when making a decision.

    Confirmation bias is when a person arrives at a conclusion in line with their beliefs.
