14. Linn Kastan
“The best advice I can give about communicating is to have
patience. Know at the start that your ideas won't always
be accepted or understood the first time around. Keel
calm, and figure a better way to deliver the message. And
pay special attention to timing. Your idea may get a
response if you barge into someone’s office and demand
a hearing; but if you choose a time and place that makes
the other more receptive, you just may get through.”
