Championing an idea

Two days ago I was discussing the practical aspect of successfully implementing a concept or gaining acceptance for an idea. There is the direct method of charging bull like a bull that rams into the subject without much preparation or strategy; that one albeit quick never produces much in terms of positive results. At the other end of the spectrum, there is an orchestrated “planting of the seed” that hopefully will grow, germinate and pretty soon invade its surrounding at everyone’s surprise. That’s a process that I’m eager to better understand and develop when it’s appropriate to bring new and strong ideas everyone can use and profit from.

When I’m ready to introduce that sound, but little-known concept, instead of rushing the job by doing a piece here and a piece there, I intend to first study the background of the topic in question, survey its environment, list a few strategies and pick the one that has the best chances of bringing the idea or the project to fruition. This is quite exciting and I’ll tell you more as the process incubates…
