How to Breakup Collusion?

by bettergains . Updated 20 years, 3 months ago

Hello:

What’s your advice for this scenario?

Enterprise environment needs some fixing. Process is aligned to creative thinking, not a disciplined approach (such as UML with some thought to logical data & structures.) Enthusiastic and “sponsored” “Team” members “control the discussion on change. The team is comprised of 6 members, 2 of which have any real understanding / experience with UML ish disipline.

The others dutifully nod and confirm suggestions by the non expert leaders, ie Collude. Momentum takes the group the wrong and status quo direction. Team member with the most expertise doesn’t speak up and intervene. 2nd most expert (with least political status in this funky org) is exasperated.

Do I: forget about it?
Try to engage the leaders and experts sans Colluders?
Try to engage the Expert sans everyone else?

What have you found works the best and is the most expedient.

Appreciative, B
