060713 - following up our discussion on 960605 at ref SDS 9 line 158, and my

060715 - included the draft evaluation report on Communication Metrics, ref OF
060716 - 3 line 29.
060717 -
060718 - Carrol said they should have received the document by now, but they do
060719 - not log documents in because they get too many.
060720 -
060721 - I explained our need to get General Hatch's approval for the comments
060722 - assigned to him in the report on Communication Metrics. Carrol said
060723 - Hank is in the office today, but is in meetings. She will advise his
060724 - assistant of our call so they can look for the letter and make it
060725 - available to Hank for review.
060726 -
060727 - Carrol took my name and said she will call me back.

0610 - 1224 Hank called back
0611 -
061101 - He left a message while we were at Uncle Roy's funeral that it is okay
061102 - to cite him in the COE evaluation on Communication Metrics, and, also,
061103 - that he cannot do the PMI event this year because he will be on the
061104 - East Coast on 970615. I called back to verify that he received my
061105 - letter and was responding in relation to it, since the letter says we
061106 - are doing another assignment, ref DIP 4 line 54, and Hank ended his
061107 - message with a general statement about good luck in promoting
061108 - Communication Metrics. I also wanted to let him know that I am not
061109 - associated with PMI's Asilomar stuff this year, and only made the call
061110 - as a courtesy for PMI's conference team.
061111 -
061112 - [Advised Max of Hank's position per above at ref SDS 19 line
061113 - 157.]
061114 -
061115 - I want to try to get Hank to write a letter to be included with the
061116 - evaluation. I need to draft the letter and figure out how to get the
061117 - scope of services in front of him that explains how to apply
061118 - "intelligence" to the daily work of managers.
061119 -
061120 - [See submission to Hank at ref SDS 20 line 61.]

0614 - 0428 called Hank back

061501 - His secretary said he is in a closed door meeting and so he cannot

061504 - Decided to draft a possible endorsement letter Hank might send to
061505 - colleagues at Fluor Daniel and within the government.
061506 -
061507 -
061508 - Dear ____,
061509 -
061510 - I am pleased to learn that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
061511 - reports that Communication Metrics is an effective method to
061512 - provide "intelligence" for daily management. During my term as
061513 - Commander of the Corps we tried to develop automated management
061514 - with IBM and others, but were unsuccessful. Communication Metrics
061515 - appears to have succeeded, and gone beyond, by integrating time
061516 - and information to produce "knowledge." As understanding of this
061517 - breakthrough permeates public conscience, Communication Metrics
061518 - offers the best chance yet to create opportunity from the burden
061519 - of too much information flowing to leaders, cited by Henry
061520 - Kissinger, George Shultz, Robert MacNamera and others.
061521 - Congratulations to the Corps for a timely report on technology
061522 - and work practices that add value to people by adding
061523 - "intelligence" to information.
