Initial Decision-MakingThis section provides suggestions about the types of decisions any group should make before getting into the work on a paper itself in order to prevent future problems. Where many groups go wrong is not being clear about expectations from the onset. Problems are much easier to deal with when you discuses their possibility in the abstract rather than when they involve individual people and feelings.
