Indeed - it very much does allow for individuals taking a lead, but  
they need to ensure that
1) they understand that they get to lead by consent of the group, not  
by their own right
2) whatever they do gains a sense of common ownership, and be prepared  
to change course if that's not happening.

Cheers
Martin
