Pay attention to what they communicate in the push back...that will give you clues on how to shape the "wings" as you champion the idea through the leadership chain. #4 In Giving Wings…
As a facilitator of Creative and Innovative Thinking Workshops, another essential awareness is the need to unhook yourself from the need for approval from your colleagues and boss. Without this, you won’t even desire to give the idea any wings.

Pay attention to what they communicate in the push back…that will give you clues on how to shape the “wings” as you champion the idea through the leadership chain.
