The Time Has Come for Fresh Ideas
Your fortune may be changing.
If you sell to the Federal Government, your firm may have been rebuffed in the past with ideas to help the agency.
However, the time to polish up those new ideas is upon us. The new administration has made it clear they will reward new ideas and encourage change. I expect this is not the usual political rhetoric and will be backed up with funding.
Times are ripe for change. Goodness knows, we are in some trouble and need to find new ways to do many things if we are to succeed. Agencies willing, but suffering from lack of an environment to entertain change, now have their chance.
Even the folks reluctant to consider new ideas will feel pressure to build a political cover for themselves as a change agent. You may be surprised by who is willing to hear you out, and help you.
State and Local government agencies may feel this wave later, and it may be less strong, but infrastructure will see increased funding as the federal government prints money to get people moving and back to work.
If you chair or attend your business development meetings, consider whether your firm should re-consider promoting new ideas NOW to your clients and customers.
