"How To Manage: Selling Your Ideas To Leadership", podcast by Amy Bernstein

“Selling Your Ideas to Leadership” is an excellent episode from HBR’s Women At Work podcast. To highlight just a few of the insights from this great discussion that I have also learned over the years (often, painfully). Some may sound obvious but are difficult in practice because of the additional time, effort, and level-headed collaboration they require:

• Be sure your idea solves the problem your audience believes it has and considers a priority.

• Avoid going it alone, giving your audience the impression that you alone have the answer.

• Think about small wins to help you get buy-in (and another meeting to progress your idea).
