that last comment was very very smart, I'd have had to send some of my
enforcers to beat on you otherwise
my presentations don't compete in number of slides with Mr Niemiec (all
my respect to him, I don't know how he manages to get through all that
in the alloted time!). In fact, I was questioned on whether or not I
could fill an hour on "just" 17 slides (I did )
and no one but me (and my co-authors of course) write our books....
you are cruising for a bruising.
conversations actually were more along these lines
(our desks faced each other, so I could see his face as he worked)
"do you want to talk to me about this report?"
10 minutes later, after seeing some interesting grimaces and facial
contortions
"are you SURE you don't want to talk to me about this report?"
20 minutes later, when he says "help"......
"how about trying it this way?"
