Have you ever had to "sell" an idea to your co-workers or some group? How? Did they "buy" it?

YES,,,,  I DID THAT CRIME............ BUT I LIKE THE NEW QUESTION STYLE WITH IMAGE,,, GOOD ONE  FIDA,,, ALWAYS INNOVATIVE ,,,, APPRECIATED

Good Day!!!

YESSSSSSSS........ when i was working at an entry level job & even at lower management level, i sometimes succeeded to "Sell" my ideas to them & sometimes gets rejected......... As the time goes and i gets more experienced, i learn that i need to avaoid being a know-it-all.

I learn to build a good relationship with my co-workers...... and its VITAL.

I mostly needed the key influencers who supports my idea but on the other hand, i had to be very clear and determined otherwise, the other participants kills my idea. FOr that i needed to work on my idea i a way that it turns into a reality when i present it.

BUt after all these efforts, if it doesn't works......... I accepts the defeat until i get another idea......

It is a comon thing ,every personals who are at top position in companies they provide idea and they are paid for that ,

OR

A Middle level manger achived a top position in a company becuase of his idea given to the company and after that he become a keen one  for that company

Respective the same I’m always seeking support & healthy relation with them.

These things are much precious for me compare than papers .

 

Yes and the key to selling an idea to your co-workers is to develop the reasoning and to be confident. 

In addition to that, it is important that you understand their point of view in order to better articulate your argument and to ensure that it answers their issues and concerns. 

As academic career I provide an Idea to researcher whoum act as co-workers , I didnt sell, but look for contributions and how we can acheive the outcome from the research Idea 

Sir, As a fresher, I need a platform to prove my ability. If I will be part of your company I will put my effort and strength to uplift your company. None is born with experience. If you hire me I will get professional experience through your company. I think your company is the right place to explore my abilities. I need to be part of your growth. I will do my level best for the growth of company . ‎

I do not sell ideas; on the contrary, I offer my thoughts to home he needy so that their ideas grow more

Selling an idea to my team is a question of persutaion, deliberation and conviction. It needs continuiios interaction with our temmates, clarifying thier apprehensions and and craeting desire to own up . They buying happens when the team OWNS IT UP"

yes but it depends on its relevancy to the planed activities. some times when your idea is not taken doesn't mean its fake but it may not be applicable or not ,managed so some times it depends on many factors.

All depends on how prepared, presentation skills are and have. Because my coworkers  knows some part of me and my packaging, presentations capabilities, they always buy it because they know I study, research and always confident even if they will come back to challenge the subject isue.
