I can only speak for the unwashed masses who write, debug and test code…. If you don’t trust your people to deliver what they are supposed to deliver, why did you hire them? Why do you keep non-performers? On the other hand, if you can’t determine whether such people are delivering on their commitments and whether projects are advancing properly, why do they hire or keep you? I can see brainstorming when starting out on a product or application. Once it’s done, the best environment is to get out of the way and let people implement the design. If you’re brainstorming every week or less, you don’t know what you’re trying to do and the code’s going to be crap.
