How will the idea work? Have you got everything covered, or are there some gaps? If there are, can you figure out how to fill them, or do you need some help? If so, who might be able to help?

List all the problems your idea might have, and then think about how you might be able to overcome them.

If you get stuck on a problem, share it with others and see if they can offer a different perspective that helps.

If you are still stuck, step back and assess the problem. Is the problem fatal to the idea or just a minor detail? If you cannot solve the problem, will the idea still have value?

What is the next thing you need to do to grow your idea? (More on this in chapter 3.) How much will taking that step cost? What are the potential benefits of taking that next step? What other steps will need to be taken to make your idea a reality?

If your idea is implemented, what will it mean for the people in your organisation? Who will implement the idea? Will the idea's implementation change anyone's job? If so, what does it mean for those affected?

What will your idea cost to implement? Try to cost it, in time and money, as best you can. What will it cost to run?

What will be the benefits of implementing the idea? Again, try to arrive at a reasonably accurate estimate of how much money implementing the idea will make or save. If you can show that your idea is going to make or save more money than it costs, it's going to be a powerful argument in favour of its implementation.

Who do you need to convince to advance the idea? Anticipate all the objections that others may have, and work out what your response to them will be.
