It sounds to me like what you really should be learning isn't how to estimate, but rather how to change your mindset on disagreement. Disagreement is a good thing, not a bad thing. Learning how to change your own mind is a very useful skill that requires disagreement. When organizational disagreement stops, so does organizational growth. Be friendly and kind to people who you disagree with, and ask lots of questions to better understand their thinking.
