As with team sports, I think believing in each other and "playing for each other" is what makes it work. Otherwise, the team is a mob of self-promoters. If I doubt the business owner's decisions and don't communicate to get clear on it (and sometimes help him/her get clear as well), the project is affected. I'll take action to protect or compensate for what I perceive is lacking. Or worse, I'll disconnect and treat it as a paycheck. Great metaphor, Lis.

From my point of view it isn't design by committee in this case, but instead agreeing on the strategy of how we are going to solve the problem. To me this is conceptual vs designing the actual interface or solution. I do agree that design by committee is problematic, and this is why I'm talking about a different form of consensus above.

Would you argue against that? In some work environments I’ve been in, some people argue that team consensus (or design by committee) breeds design via the least common denominator.
