Seek out the smart people in the organization, avoid the idiots, and listen more than you speak.

Languages are just details. It's far better for developers to standardize on a set of processes - documentation, as-builts, code review, unit tests, TDD, scrum, FDD... pick a set of development processes that make sense for your company
It takes longer to figure out what the actually code is doing than to understand the syntax and semantics anyways.
I couldn't agree more. It is much more important to standardize the process and documentation trail, than to standardize on any set of tools and languages.
