Indeed, I believe it was Alfred Sloan who, during a board meeting when discussing some idea/product where everyone seemed to be in agreement, said that the company would not move forward until the board reconvened and someone could criticize it or present counter arguments.
As long as the discussion remains civil, and one respects both the other person as well as his or her opinion, and their right to that opinion, there is nothing wrong with disagreeing. Take both fiscal and monetary policy as examples;'amlotmodmdisagreement among economists, but it is by and large respectful (with the exception of the ad hominem attacks by Paul Krugmam, which should be below a Novel prize winner),
