sigh must every post end with a trite patronizing question posed to the reader?
>> "Create something in a few weeks that normally takes a few months. Do something in a way that works better than the status quo (or shows the promise of working better), Then you won’t need to convince anyone with words — the results will speak for themselves."
This might work, but it can also actually work against you. If you go against the status-quo, people can actually doubt you have done things properly, assume you're not a 'team player', etc etc. If you start telling the truth about how long things might take, you'll get laughed at. If you go away and complete it, and show it working, people will assume you cut corners, didn't do it properly etc
Some big companies just work really slowly, and fighting that often doesn't seem worthwhile.
