Is that how you would build a football team? Hire 11 strikers/forwards, etc. because they all have merit? Team building takes more than just looking for talent

Team building takes more than just looking for talent, there needs to be diversity of opinion, experience and culture to build the strongest teams.
A statement based on MEI looks particularly one dimensional to me.
- john_the_writer 2y agoWhat? If you look at a football team, there are different skills, but diverse opinion and culture? The experience bit is more Noob vs Pro. If you're hiring a team of dev's you hire front-end, back-end, designers. But you hire those with skill. Proven history of performance. And oddly you also hire away from diverse opinion. Everyone on a team should be on the same side.
- benfortuna 2y agoIt was a metaphor, not a literal comparison. And you do want diverse opinion to avoid groupthink.
