Could you explain that please?
I'm a scientist and not a linguist, but I had thought that because the 'creative team and Pete' was the object of the sentence he would refer to himself as 'me'.

It depends on the context.
"The creative team and I thought that this would be a worthwhile project."

"He entrusted the project to the creative team and me."

I was just correcting the "correction".

Therefore
it should be "I understand that there's going to be some interaction between your creative team and me..."

Or would the original "I understand that there's going to be some interaction between myself and your creative team..." be OK, because it's self-referential?

My leaning is towards the former.
