Question

How did Perry manage to persuade different experts to contribute to her innovative idea of a transducer to send power over the air?

Perry managed to persuade different experts to contribute to her innovative idea of a transducer to send power over the air by breaking down her idea into interim steps and asking experts in different fields to work on those steps. She asked acoustics experts to design a transmitter, others to design a receiver, and an electrical engineer to build the electronics. By doing so, she obscured the radicalism of her idea, making it more palatable to the experts.

This question was asked on:

Eventually Perry stopped telling the experts what she was trying to create—a transducer to send power over the air— and instead asked for interim steps. She persuaded acoustics experts to design a transmitter, others to design a receiver, and an electrical engineer to build the electronics. She tempered the radicalism of her idea by obscuring its most extreme feature.
