“When it gets to the stage of arguing or questioning every recommendation, things have gone too far; because in addition to all the data, the expert has hands-on experience in real situations that no amount of research and conversation can duplicate.  Bottom line: Don’t partner with an expert if all you are going to do is argue with them.  You hired this person for a reason.  Unless you yourself are going to get a degree in the field, you need their information.  If you don’t trust them, fire them.” – Anna P.
