A. poor group leadership.
B. a conflict between an individual role and group goals.
C. lack of an adequate agenda for the group.
D. abuse of the RISK technique.

Option B = a conflict between an individual role and group goals.

Explanation:

In the question above we can see that one out of the group members( Bert) make fun of almost everything and at first the other members in the group look at Bert as a someone that is so funny but later they are do not love his CONSTANT jokes and unseriousness anymore.

The reason the other group members became unhappy with Bert is because Bert is not abiding with the group goals. Bert role in the group was never to be unserious but that is what he is doing so there will surely be a Conflict between Bert roles in the group and the group goals. Work is work, there is no harm in little fun though, but work is always work that is the reason they brought the group together in the first place.

no one should discriminated against because he or she is not from a minority group
