Let’s not confuse your role as an ideator. Not exclusively, anyway.
You don’t get paid to have ideas.
You get paid to have opinions.
Opinions are ideas, but they’re based on data and they have an action basis and expected result.
It’s also easy to hide behind an idea… “it’s just an idea” is safe.
There’s no hiding behind “that’s my opinion right now.”
