Great article, thank you! This is so relevant for nonprofit teams, where introducing something new to stakeholders (like a board) is often made harder by unclear evaluation criteria. Focusing on the solution rather than the method, plus visualisation and transparency, makes a big difference.
One more thought in support of your points: we often seem afraid of being “too complex.” But I’ve always believed the issue isn’t the complexity of the concept, project, or idea itself, it’s how we explain it.
In some cases, clearly articulated complexity actually earns respect. Not everything needs to be simplified all the time
