Can You Hear Me Now?


It is a bit cliche, but it doesn't make it any less true. Perhaps you've seen in movies or television a dialog where someone suggests a great idea in a meeting such as "what if we sold widgets for $4.95 each" and the idea is immediately shot down, only later to have someone else say, "I got it, let's sell our widgets for $4.95..." to roaring approval. Believe me, it happens quite a bit. I've seen it. In some companies there's no such thing as a good idea unless the idea comes from a few specific people. Ah, the triumphs and trials of personal politics. It makes us die a little more inside every day.
