I personally like to sit down and bounce it around a roundtable if I can.<br /><br />Other than that I ping it out via twitter, the blog or Instant Chat clients and open it up for more.<br /><br />My point of view is that everyone in my team has the potential for super ideas. I worked with someone once who said the seniors should tell the juniors what to do. I disagree. I think we should open the ideas up and get buy in from all involved. The juniors have good ideas too. And they are more often willing to accept ideas from above if they've had some input to them.<br /><br />Cool post.<br /><br />rob..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
