dispatches from the new world of work

All the News ...

... about the website: Many of you have noticed glitches over the last several days. We're undergoing a server migration, and parts of the website have been out of commission. As we become aware of them, we get them fixed, so please keep the comments coming. Though we are navigating through our site to find problems, our first source of knowledge about them is usually you, our readers. We appreciate your help! And, be forewarned, soon the server's service will be interrupted again, though our host can't predict when, so please be patient with us in the next couple of weeks.

Another problem that's been noted is that comments are s-l-o-o-o-o-w to post. We're getting ready to delete old comments to reduce the immense size of our files, which have to be rebuilt every time a comment is posted. Never fear, though, we copied and saved all the past discussion. Every word posted here is important to us, and we have our entire blog archive, comments included, reproduced offline.

Cathy: I'm having trouble printing anything off the site. Also, some strange content manager window comes up sometimes when I try to bring up tp.com Love everything you have up there.

Dan, I'll send the printing comment on. The strange content manager window should not appear again. Migration is complete.

And, thanks for the compliment!

It's normal symptom of interdimensional ** problems**.

What ever is needed, will stay, what's not, will be gone.

Jack,
Here are some books Tom's mentioned recently in videos (you couldn't have found them there), and under other topics:

The Dream Manager by Cool Friend Matthew Kelly

On Becoming a Leader by Tom's mentor Warren Bennis

Hostmanship: The Art of Making People Feel Welcome by Jan Gunnarsson and Olle Blohm

The Manager's Book of Decencies by Steve Harrison

Michael Crichton's Next. Tom says: "The genetic revolution has great promise--and great peril. Some may call this book "alarmist"; I am not among them."

The Definitive Book of Body Language, which should be fun, by Barbara and Allan Pease, who wrote Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps

And, finally, his healthcare reading is recounted in this blog entry: http://www.tompeters.com/entries.php?note=010292.php

There you go!
