Whyte-Out: How the Creator of Groupthink Became Unseen by Management's History
No full textIrving Janis’ (1971) concept of ‘groupthink’, the idea that the desire for consensus overrides the realistic appraisals of alternatives and leads to poor decision making, is a staple of management and organizational behavior textbooks. Despite gaining little support in empirical studies, Janis’ eight symptoms of groupthink remains a popular framework taught to budding managers. What has been forgotten, however, is that nearly 20 years before Janis’ supposed invention, groupthink was created by William H Whyte, author of one of the 1950s’ most influential and popular books on management. We investigate how Whyte’s link to groupthink became invisible to management’s history, why this matters, and how recovering Whyte’s ideas can provide fresh, critical insights into people dynamics in contemporary organizations.
Edmund Burke, John Whyte and Themes in Canadian Constitutional Culture
No full textJohn Whyte, the author observes, is committed to the idea that there are moral foundations to Canada\u27s constitutional order and that these foundations are derived from liberal principles. This paper compares Whyte\u27s liberal and organicist constitutionalism to that of the eighteenth century British political thinker, Edmund Burke. Three themes are predominant in Whyte\u27s work: those of liberty and security, unity and diversity, and constitutional change. Drawing out these themes in both Whyte\u27s and Burke\u27s constitutional thought, the author argues that Whyte has a sound historical basis for deriving Canadian constitutional practices from liberal principles ordinarily associated with Burke. The author concludes by asking this question: if Canadian constitutionalism can be reduced to liberalism, what distinguishes Canada from the United States, and more critically, what will prevent Canada from being absorbed into a larger North American political unit

Real-time image-based feedback for microfluidic applications
No full textThe field of microfluidics has been solving problems on the micro-scale for
decades, but many in-flow analysis techniques only take single dimensional
measurements. In this thesis, multi-dimensional, real-time image analysis has been used
to improve and expand upon current microfluidic techniques in several microfluidic areas.
Microdroplets within microfluidics are a promising technique for creating microscopic
vessels for chemical and biochemical experiments, however accurately controlling such
tiny objects can be difficult. The use of real-time image feedback has dramatically
improved the monodispersity (coefficient of variation of 0.32%) and accurate loading of
the contents of droplets. Beyond this, using these techniques, real-time analysis on the
morphology of living cells can be carried out and used to isolate cells of interest. Machine
learning algorithms have provided a rapid method to identify the cell populations based
on quantitative parameters extracted from transmission or fluorescent images of the cells.
By integrating fast piezo-based fluid manipulation, highly selective and accurate cell
sorting can be performed within a lab-on-a-chip device for the isolation of subpopulations
of cells based on their morphological features. Using this method, K562 cells have been
sorted from a mixed population with an efficiency of 91.3% and a purity of 99.4%
Operating a cleanroom: risk management and control of contamination
No full textThis article is a reproduction of Chapter 18 of the Third Edition of Cleanroom Technology, Fundamentals of Design, Testing and Operation by Bill Whyte by kind permission of the author. The Third Edition of Cleanroom Technology, which was published independently by the author in 2023, was reviewed by the editor in CACR49. The main sections in the reproduced chapter explain how to identify sources and routes of contamination, how to carry out a risk assessment of sources of contamination with examples, how to control and reduce the risk of contamination, how to establish a monitoring programme, how to verify and reappraise the CCC (cleanroom contamination control) system, and what the basic requirements are for documentation and staff training
The forgotten ‘immortalizer’: Recovering William H Whyte as the founder and future of groupthink research
No full textIrving Janis’s concept of ‘groupthink’, the idea that a collective desire for consensus overrides the realistic appraisals of alternatives and leads to poor group decision making, is a staple of social science textbooks. Despite gaining little support in empirical studies, Janis’s eight symptoms of groupthink remains a popular framework. What has been forgotten, however, is that nearly 20 years before Janis’s supposed invention, groupthink was coined by social critic William H Whyte, author of one of the 1950s, most influential books on management. Adding to the growing interest in a historical turn in Management and Organization Studies, we investigate how and why Whyte’s groupthink was over-written by a history that found Janis’s ideas more useful, and outline how recovering Whyte can add value to our thinking now
