I second the recommendation for looking into Extreme Programming.
I also suggest if you are not already doing so, work with a robust framework to develop applications with a common team methodology rather than reinventing the wheel less well than professional wheel-inventors.
And invest in training so there is a common frame of reference for the team.
(note signature - I'm notoriously prejudiced about this - but not because I am a framework maker - I am a tool *user* and that is what makes me a fan of professionally developed frameworks. I didn't write a line of VFE but I've solved a lot of business problems with it much fast than if i were hacking around rolling my own)

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
