I like it when it is built into the culture beyond just formal reviews. A culture must have a high emotional quotient to make it that way however. Lorne Toby,

I can't say I've reviewed the book but it seems intriguing. Today anyone can observe that those who are gainfully employed are also overtaxed. Multitasking is "the new busy" as Hotmail put's it and somewhere between the human condition and acting as a conduit for limitless requests, correspondence, meetings and deliverables mistakes are inevitable and many "asks" go unanswered. Then there's the conflicting feedback from competing sources or feedback skewed by (mis)perception. I agree with finding worthy sources for input but for the rest, do your best to breathe and take time to realize we're not making life altering decisions. Unless of course you happen to be a surgeon and then in that case you actually are making life altering decisions. I hope you find this feedback useful! KB Lorne,

You were always an effective leader with great personality traits in your toolkit.

I can’t say I’ve reviewed the book but it seems intriguing. Today anyone can observe that those who are gainfully employed are also overtaxed.

I really enjoy reading your blog. It is very intuitive and helpful. Keep it up. I check it every day or every other day and I always find I am enjoying the messages. Today's message rings true to me. In my career at Intel, we had 360 feedback sessions, where we would give feedback to our peers. It was always under the premise of "Stop, Start, Continue". I found that this was an effective feedback tool as it set aside personal agenda and got down to behavior. This was great because you are attacking an issue, not a person. Anyway, I just thought this was a great post, I also like to get that feedback and I feel I am receiving it in my new position. That is all, keep on keepin on! Living the triangle (or at least trying), Toby Hey Lorne.
