Steve, your analogy about the Mission Impossible vs the Mystery Men teams was a good attempt, but it fails in one seriously important aspect.Even the Mystery Men team "got the job done" and "solved the problem".
Given the industry stats on project failures, most management would be ecstatic to be able to experience success on a frequent basis.
LOL, but hopefully the MI team is more efficient and works better.

Great idea (maybe), but who prioritises which of these great ideas is of most use to the business?
The main issue for my organisation (like most I suspect) is that we have useful project ideas a-plenty but the difficulty is to order them in terms of which deliver most benefits to the business. Otherwise it's a case of who shouts loudest gets their pet project through.
I'd love the chance to 'swarm' over the technically interesting items, but I work for a real business in the real world which requires value for money from its technology team.

And here I thought it was called by the more formal name, "bumping into someone in the hall and asking a question about a project". I guess "swarm" does make a better movie title though...
