Functional stupidity can have benefits. It can facilitate decision-making, create a good workplace climate, safeguard people's sense of self, and offer a sense of direction. But too much functional stupidity may have drawbacks. It can obstruct clever decision-making and problem-solving, build a conformist workplace, undermine identities, and desensitize people to problems.Organisations cannot function with a bunch of hyper-critical know-it-alls (ie. you and me). A little bit of functional stupidity is necessary to be able to get anything done in a group.
