Ask HN: How do you make decisions in your teams/solo?

1 pointsby barryhennessyabout 3 years ago
I think decision making is one of the most important things we do as software engineers (not to mention other disciplines).<p>How you manage decisions in your teams? Do you have heavy process, lightweight, none? What works, what _doesn&#x27;t_ and in what situations?<p>My aim here is to flush out ideas and generate some discussion. Hopefully to figure out some better ways of managing this critical piece of our work.<p>Thanks for your time!

Really, for my job, it depends on the subject. Next feature: the CTO (small structure, so he has the PO cap). Small library dependency to add in our project, the dev that need it. Big refactoring: the one that had the idea validated by the whole team (to be sure it&#x27;s the path we want to take). Process&#x2F;documentation: a team specific meeting. Usually, small nits to change to sustain all team members. For current next big feature, it&#x27;s the fourth proposal and we don&#x27;t agree yet. So was have more proposals to come.
