Well, Russell is trying to build an ideal team and structure from what I understand, so trying to give him a whiff of the possibilities.
What is most important is not heirarchy but rather culture. The fact that engineers can live under the management of a designer is very different from what we are all used to, but it isn't required to make the situation work. Dotted lines of communication and shared project leadership and understanding the processes and methods of each other are much more important than top-down structuring. -- dave On 10/4/07, Mark Schraad <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I think, Dave, that you are of the fortunate few. > > > On Thursday, October 04, 2007, at 02:01PM, "David Malouf" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > ...projects fall under the CDO b/c all innovation starts from design > research if indeed you want to be user driven and not technology driven.
