Sparking the Fire
summary
Outlines a toolbox of 64 change patterns (author distilled eight here) and claims using them reliably converts interest into adoption by creating emotional buy‑in, not just logical arguments. Demonstrates specific tactics: Elevator pitch + wakeup call to surface a concrete problem, HomeTown Story and Imagine that workshops to make possibilities felt, one‑on‑one Personal Touch conversations to surface fears, and a card‑based Fearless Journey game (used on Miro) for stepwise baby steps; patterns fit iterative pilots and accept expected failures.
