Teamwork
If you invest heavily in a few smart people, you have a very small learning surface exposed: there is only so much even very bright people can learn at one time. Whereas when the entire team meets a certain standard for competence, there is a very large learning surface exposed and the team is able to absorb more information.
Better connection enables people make better decisions; Better decisions make better organisations; Better collective decisions creates successful organisations.
Great teams have the discipline to continuously improve systems that share actionable wisdom. Battles will be lost but in the long run you can't lose if you build a team based on close cooperative collaboration with a constant focus on improvement through education and experimenting on how to get the best out of technology to do more, with less, faster and better.
