I do like the spirit of "developer driven development". The developers (and testers and other vital roles) are the endpoints for discovering and solving problems. There should be clear routes and aims of communication so that a problem is known to the right people to investigate and fix it. By Conway's law[0], development is only as effective as the organization of the developers. So there should be structures that clearly facilitate the right amounts and kinds of communication to develop effectively.
