How to Get Your Ideas Adoptedwill change all that. This important, enjoyable and stimulating book explains why it's so difficult to get a new idea adopted, and how to get your ideas taken seriously and put into action.

How to Get Your Ideas Adoptedexplains why and, more importantly, what you can do about it. Carrying on from where Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Pointleft off, it also explains how to prepare your ideas and your outlook to give you the best chance of success, and then reveals the secrets of overcoming the four critical stages of resistance from others.
