And instead, when you have a clear idea, you believe that's the right approach.
And of course, you have listened to input, intellectual honesty, openness.

Thankfully, others on the team were better.
And so as usual in a team, you complement each other.
I think a lot of management teams are too worried about having a percentage, for example, of their team disagreeing with them, criticizing them.
