Balancing tech and non-tech perspectives is crucial for team cohesion and innovation. To ensure no one feels undervalued, actively seek non-tech contributions, especially regarding user experience and business outcomes. Offering tech literacy sessions empowers non-tech members, fostering informed discussions. Rotating meeting facilitators ensures that each perspective leads and sets agendas, allowing for more inclusive conversations. This not only promotes mutual respect but also strengthens collaboration by valuing diverse insights. Creating a culture where all voices are heard is key to a well-rounded, effective team.

As per my opinion, there should be a proper hierarchy in discussion panel while having any project discussion which includes both tech and non-tech people. While project owners and management is understanding the project requirements, it should be clearly stated to the tech people to check its feasibility and then to ensure how things can be delivered in the most efficient and innovative way while completely aligning with the client’s expectations. In this way everyone would be valued equally .
