...Q&A with Alan Weiss
In 1992, Alan Weiss PhD published Million Dollar Consulting (McGraw Hill), a comprehensive, non-nonsense, remarkably innovative treatise on how to become (and remain) a super-successful consultant which still tops best-seller lists today. In this interview with our Chief Imaginative Officer Ken Lizotte, Alan shares his opinions on thoughtleading as a business development strategy, a frame of mind and a way of life.
thoughts and actions...
...new to our team
Behind the scenes, as we assist our client thoughtleaders in their quests to publish articles and books, and to position themselves in other ways as expert gurus, are two new faces (and email addresses!) on our team: Maureen Costello, our newest Editor/Scribe, and Madeline Vellturo, our Spring 2006 intern.
