0508 -
050801 - I asked Smith if he has looked at the material I sent, ref DIP 1,
050802 - and if we could set a date for a demonstration?
050803 -
050804 - Smith said he will not be able to consider this for 2 to 3 weeks.  I
050805 - suggested he may have an assistant who could evaluate the material
050806 - and report on it to him.  He said he wants to do this himself.

100702 - Too Busy to Manage - Job is Managing Manager
100703 -
100704 - Smith's position reflects someone who is too overloaded with
100705 - information and tasks to manage effectively.  The job is managing him,
100706 - by innundating span of attention with constant information that
100707 - prevents evaluating good ideas.
100708 -
100709 - Ann is in a similar position.  She has not answered her phone on any
100710 - of the 5 times or so I have called.  This may be a management
100711 - strategy in response to a heavy work load.  Is it a good one?
100712 -
100713 - Has intellectural gridlock got you swamped?  If you are going to
100714 - more meetings than you can absorb and implement.  As the number of
100715 - meetings you attend increases, the degree to which you can apply the
100716 - results diminishes:  law of diminishing returns.
