This one, everyone is winging it, and hopefully you get enough smart people in a room together they can come up with a solution.

Cooperative smart people. (someone who works with a lot of uncooperative smart people, smarter than me at least)

Don't. I manage smart people. Divide the territory up. Getting them to work together at the edges. People are territorial, smart people are harder because they can give good reasons why they should get more territory. Everyone has their zone of control and everyone is happy.

Also reminder: it is almost always better to have someone in pissing out vs out and pissing in.
