Re: When Some one thinks they know all.
I agree with the quality control committee idea. It may be inefficient, but it's better than having something totally wrong in the end.
The biggest thing is communication. Point out (politely) what he is doing wrong. The best way is to show that you know what you are talking about, and have others back you up. If he says "left," explain some reasons why you should go "right." But show respect for him.
Do you have someone with a strong influence on the team? Like someone who everyone listens to and respects? If so, then sit down with that person and the new team member and talk about what you have a problem with.
Other than that, I guess I'm having trouble seeing why your mentors (engineers, teachers) don't step in. That's part of FIRST - people who know teaching the people that don't know.
Hope this helps.
