DisapprovalSquelching

Disapproval of new ideas/approaches/products comes in all sorts of packaging:

•  "It cost too much."
• "We don't do it that way."
• "It's not in our strategic plan."
• Someone's job might be imperiled.
• "It's too risky."
• "That's not our wheelhouse."
• Workload or workflow might need to be changed.

We can either fold to the naysayers OR quietly and methodically build consensus among those willing to think differently.
