In an individual contributor where the risk and responsibility falls on you it may be expedient to go by instinct and gut feel. But the moment the there is a team the most important ability to get things done is consensus.
This can also be ego and attention seeking behavior masquerading as trying to 'get things done'. It seems to be driven more by the need to stand out than accomplish anything and puts everyone in peril for individual glory.
Casual references to 10X have no credibility without performance metrics. 10xers will have to earn the trust of the team and will automatically have it with a track record like Linux Torvalds on Linux or Ussain Bolt on 100m or its just hubris and posturing that will damage team productivity.
