trade-off of a diverse task force: low speed when fast decisions are needed --- Thank you Muna for your listing, which I would have initially tough of and supported as well. But thinking about it again, I think we have to distinguish between what is needed for immediate "emergency response" and more medium-long term response. Comparing it to how it works in an emergency medicine department, where interdisciplinary work under time constraints is essential, there are many examples where having too many advices (the surgeon, the anaesthetist, the cardiologist...) have led to time delay which in the end killed the patient. But continuing on this example, to determine who has the leadership and to respect it, is very difficult, because everybody has its own perspective.
