Should devs manage dev environments

• problem-diagnosis-remedy-proposal

  1 8 0.0

  A clear, generally concise proposal format to win hearts and minds

The trick is always convincing people that there is a better way. Because you have such a small team responsible for so much, you really need to establish consensus with some discussion and counter-railroading. I push the problem, diagnosis, remedy proposal model on a lot of my organizations whenever I see that there's not consensus or that there's not much interest in consensus or shared knowledge. Sometimes a "do what you think is right" carte blanche from the team is a good thing when you want to go fast, but when you want to go far together, having written artifacts of your intentions and the reasoning behind them is incredibly important. On a small team, you do not have the luxury of isolation or compartmentalization.
