  1. Waiting stage
    • Disconnected from decisions
    • Fragmented
    • Challenges are avoided
    • Someone oughta do something about this
  2. Impasse
    • Enough is enough!
  3. Catalytic
    • Small group emerges to challenge existing norms
    • Numbers grow SLOWLY
    • Links and networks with powerful people
  4. Growth
    • Growth of self confidence. More widespread adoption
