Moving Tricks
Saturday, July 28th, 2007Moving is extremely hard work. Moving out of state, say, from California to Colorado, is even harder. Take, for example, the logistics of renting a moving truck, finding a cat friendly hotel to stay at a mid-way point, and flying your moving buddy back out to California. Note to self: rent ...

Teamwork
Thursday, April 5th, 2007I thought of these today. They probably need refinement. Sean's three rules on teamwork: Announce success. Listen to other's successes. Announce failure. Listen to other's failures. In the absence of clear direction, set your own direction and go. Announce. Listen. (False) modesty creates tribal knowledge. At the risk of sounding immodest, tell your team members ...
Thinking outside of the box
Monday, March 12th, 2007In the absence of an overwhelming need to get something done, do you: Take extra moments to reflect on your task at hand so as to think of different, perhaps better, ways to do it? Do it in the "known-quantity" way, regardless of elegance, and move on? Something in between? I'd like to think ...
