Many leaders set the bar high for sharing a new idea. As a result, they fail to build influence and presence. Here's a different way to frame the goal for sharing increases confidence and frequency.
The framing to give yourself permission to share and invite people into a conversation and get curious about their feedback so you can iterate is a powerful one.
Great article! I unintentionally framed an org discussion this way with one of my directors and found them more willing to think about a new org design and structure. Also helped to frame the issues that the new org was trying to tackle and admitting that org designs are not a panacea.

Love the advice on framing. I regularly use "This may be a dumb idea, but I'm hoping it inspires better ideas…"
