This latest edition of A Process for the Development of Ideas has more than a new title--it has been expanded to show you exactly how to cultivate an idea to its total funding potential and garner support from within your organization. The authors demonstrate how to develop and refine the project to ensure success and how to plan for successful implementation and administration of awarded funds. They also share proven methods to help protect the best ideas from being lost, ignored, or improperly developed. Helpful appendixes identify additional reference materials and information sources as well as feature examples of application forms and other materials.
