dispatches from the new world of work

New! New!

I'm in the air to Adelaide as you see this. Pre-trip work included putting together a bunch of new slides. You'll find 'em attached.

And, to U.S. readers, Happy Holiday!

... me too though "work" isn't in my vocab - career-fun, baby.

Dr. T - love the white background slides with red & black print - fabulous - jumps off the page. And slides on "instincts" = thanks.

Tom, I gave a copy of Reimagine to my girlfriend of the time about 4 months after its release.We broke up that weekend. She is in senior management at a 3 billion market cap NASDAQ traded company whose stock was in the 50's at the time and now in the 90's.

Cause and effect?

GODSPEED, Tom

Tom,

I haven't seen you since we had a drink in Copenhagen night before your big HP gig. Trust you are well. Since you are flying today, I wanted to share with you my post from this AM linking frequent flyer programs to the Stockholm Syndrome. Thought you might be able to develop it.

TP: "Take more blame than you deserve" -
Yes! "Apologize first ... Ask questions later" ... And don't attempt to place the blame on the real culprits. It will only antagonize them.

Tom Hayes - Olaf of FOX News [hostage of Hamas recently released] mentioned Stockholm Syndrome. Wonder if even in typical life events some empathisize with tormentors?

Hey Tom -- I'm in Gold Coast, Australia today to give a few talks at a recruiting event. You and I are a rock throw away. It seems like our planes/paths always cross.

It is wonderful here. I must say, though, all the talk at this event is about the highly likeable Steve Irwin (RIP) and his untimely death.

I miss you dude. Check out www.sanderssays.com. Today's post (Strategy For Your Next Meeting: Listen) has your paw prints all over it.
