Ask 37signals: Breaking a stalemate
Mike asks:
…I imagine that there isn’t much of a hierarchy [at 37signals]. But in situations where you arrive at an stalemate, and a decision needs to be made, who makes the call? I am referring more to design decisions rather than business decisions.
We’re rarely, if ever, in the throws of a design decision stalemate. A stalemate means someone has to ask permission to do something and the other party says no. A battle ensues with neither side backing down.
