There is room for many new ideas and discoveries. I disagree with those who claim there are no new ideas and everything has already been discovered. The more you know, the more you know that you do not know. As you increase knowlege, the area increases. This isn't bad, but helps you appreciate the fact that you will always see more that you need to know, and as you become more knowledgeable you gain even greater appreciation for what you still don't know.
Teamwork is necessary to do things greater than the individual.
Big problems often require more than one brain. Sharing knowledge and ideas, that is communication , is vital. Coordination, hence management, is necesary to successfully bring a group together to achieve a common goal. Their knowledge space is generally different from yours, as are their biases and assumptions. They'll tell you what can't be done and why.
