I notice that you put "lecture" on the slideument half. I've been championing better PowerPoint design among my professors at university because slideuments routinely put students to sleep for 1-3 hours and don't help them learn (a la Richard E. Mayer). Interested in your thoughts on whether I'm fighting the right fight. Awesome breakdown of the process of idea socialization!

The diagram illustrates when you should put in effort and when you can be a little more laissez-faire. Nice!

Your analogy is superb! Every quarterly earnings cycle I try... and try to get investor relations counselors/officers to listen to my ideas. I'll keep at it. Thank you, Nancy. Your analogy is superb!
