You could phrase it as, “This seems like an amazing idea and a great presentation. I wonder how we could secure the budgeting and get the team for it, because it seems like it’d be a profitable if we do, and it’d be a shame to miss this opportunity.”
“This seems like a fantastic example of how to rephrase a criticism. I wonder how it could be delivered in a way that also retained enough of the meaning, because it seems like it would work well if it did, and it’d be a shame not to be able to use it. ”
Does this just come of as sarcasm to people of higher intelligence. I guess you’ve got to alter your message to suit the audience.
