I worked on a team that had a lot of amazing talent (many members of the team had 20+ years of experience in the field). Got a new manager who wanted to reduce cost and bring in "new ideas". Funny thing was: those experienced engineers had been promoting many of those new ideas for quite a while to no avail. End result was the green team that was brought in ended up taking way too long to redo everything and missed the market opportunity. They also missed the boat on the new ideas, confusing different techniques and tech for new product features that would be useful for customers. The whole thing died.
