How to save your idea from the attacks of others?

There are supposed to be five broad ways as a rule of thumb to respond when you are trying to defend your idea idea and you are facing the attacks from others:

  • Do not push out the troublemakers. Let them in and threat them with respect.
  • Do not respond in half-hour speeches that try to drill people into the ground with information. Rather communicate in ways that are simple and clear.
  • Do not let it get personal. No matter how much you want to lash out.
  • Watch the whole group and do not get hung up on the one guy who is attacking you. Remember that to atack is very easy.
  • Do not forget to prepar, preparation is important.
