Decision by committee in my experience is cumbersome and inefficient. However, a group of people brainstorming can lead to excellent ideas, that can then be selected by a group leader. An employer or committee leader who doesn't tap into the creative brain power of others is a fool. On the other hand, I have seen committees get bogged down by dissenters, or people with personal agendas.

No, not at all. When groups come together, a number of things seem to happen.
1) They think that a common singular decision has to be made.
2) Dissentors often surrender to the will of the masses.
We have an evolutionarily deep-seated fear of being ostracized from a group that would otherwise help us survive.

No.Have you heard the saying...to many cooks will spoil the soup?It means when to many people think they have the answer,only arguments occur.Unless there is a single person to decide after hearing all ideas from the group,that's the only way it would work.

To be honest it depends on the person. If the person has hard times listening to his or her own voice then it would be best that they talk to someone they can really trust, if the person has no problem listening to his or her own voice then it probable doesn't matter.
