If your ideas aren't gaining traction, start engaging stakeholders early.
Understand their goals and priorities and align your proposal.
Don't just align - co-create with them.
When people build together, they fight to make it succeed.
The more buy-in you build, the more your ideas will succeed.
Which means greater impact and recognition.
Influence starts with engagement.
What's your go-to tactic for gaining influence without authority?
PS: The hardest part? Letting the idea outgrow your ego.
