There is always more than one way of getting anything done. It is your job to ensure you create an atmosphere that allows everyone to air their views.
Even if we still go with your ideas, you would find out that you are benefiting from the diverse ideas shared. You could borrow concepts from various sources and emerge with a much better idea.
For every time you deny others a chance to actually contribute to the matter at end. You are short changing yourself.
“Why only use your staff’s hands and legs when you could also use their brains for free?”
This is why it is important to have a truly diverse team, people from different backgrounds, from different walks of life ensures everyone present doesn’t merely confirm the views of the other, but each sees things differently and are free to explore.
If everyone on your team is “like you”, you don’t have a team. Probe deeper, you just might have surrounded yourself with “Yes Men” without you knowing.
The right atmosphere and a diverse team. Critical ingredients.
