[Leadership laws] The innovation law of the diva

TL; DR

Innovators' mantra of "DVF" (Desirability, Viability, Feasibility) is not enough. You also need "A" (Agreeability or Acceptability; your pick*), making "DVFA" (aka diva).

The "A" answers what your stakeholders and org will actually approve based on their real needs, priorities, and incentives, separately from the objective "quality" of your work.

Spend as much time and effort on "A" work as on the "DVF" work.
