What's Happened/Happening

Our most important priority right now is building a critical mass of sponsors for our Workplace Performance Dashboard project, which we announced last month. Please read the announcement, download the project overview, and contact us with questions or to sign up.

We're looking for no more than a dozen forward-looking, visionary companies that want "first mover" advantage in forming an effective workplace strategy and monitoring its results.

We also continue to travel regularly on private business with individual clients. If we're in your area and have a few minutes, we'd love to see you for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or "refreshments" any time after 5 PM local time (you know what that means . . .).

Give us a shout or send us a note, and if we can squeeze out some time, we'd love to say hello and share some good ideas the old-fashioned way:  face-to-face, glass in hand.

Here's what's on our calendars right now:

January 2009

  • We'll be in Long Beach, California, working with a client from January 13 to the 15th.

Getting Out and About

If we're in your area and have a few minutes, we'd love to see you for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or "refreshments" any time after 5 PM local time (and you know what that means).

We're doing our best to publish our travel schedule, including both public appearances and private client work, on our new online calendar that's embedded in our website at:
