How do you keep teams from compromising to the mediocre middle?

Compromise is a good thing, right? 

It's not if the best ideas get left on the cutting room floor in order to reach consensus. Not only is it bad for business, your highest performers will become annoyed and burned out.

Everything you ever hated about group projects in school is still true. The stakes are just higher and the players have more to lose.

I asked John Mollison, George Rotsch and Dr. Bob Choat for their insights into how to help groups of individuals trying to perform as a team keep the very best ideas, even if they weren't the most popular. 

Have you ever been on a team (other than sport) that was able create and maintain a high level of performance? What was the secret?
