50 persons is a small organization, not a team!!

I agree about responsibilities part, however, if you don't let your people grow by simply vetoing the ideas, they won't grow. Discussing and openness to your subordinates' ideas is not a bad thing in my opinion. Letting people make proof-of-concepts and fail is not abandonment of responsibilities. Letting people implement their bad ideas in production is.

Well, I refer to the whole company as a team. This may be my SME bias :)

That's a sign of a good CxO, IMHO - thinking of the whole org as a team. Respect :)
