"There are three reasons why dissent is needed. It first safeguards the decision maker against becoming the prisoner of the organization. Everybody is a special pleader, trying - often in perfectly good faith - to obtain the decision he favors. Second, disagreement alone can provide alternatives to a decision.

Peter Drucker
