Yeah, those are the guys who cheat.
But back to the point: We call it brainstorming, but then we take a vote. And year after year, we see that people who have no idea of what they are doing get a vote, and sometimes bring the design in a bad direction.

Yes. This IS it. What I will try to implement* is a systems engineering role, but comprised of a mentor and 2-3 talented students. Brainstorming still works, but the SE group makes the final decisions and irons out the details.
If we then also keep everyone reporting to the SE group, that will solve our problem of trying to integrate five different teams' output into a single product.
I like this thread.
