Don't be an ideas killer

At Unilever they have an approach they call 'Build' -i.e. build on what other people say, don't knock it down.

Helpful ways to do this do NOT include the following:

'I think what Brian meant to say is this...'

'Great idea. Unfortunately, when Smallbottles tried it, it bankrupted them...'

or

'I love it. But what do I know? I'm as mad as a lorry.'

Take action
If you like the action, why not give it a go? We don't want you to spend hours trying to find out how to get started on each action, so we've got some ideas here.
