Comparing ourselves to other consultants

The Consultant

I'm always interested in other consultants: what they do; how they do it; who they do it for; what their paradigms & beleifs are. All that jazz.

Here's an interesting external consulting firm I stumbled across: Atlantic Consulting Partners in Dallas. Check out their "services overview."

An interview process

Lieutenant Dan and I recently wrapped up conducting some interviews with MLCA staff members. These were "beta" interviews; we were looking to see if the questions gave us the information we needed for senior leadership. We did a pretty decent job documenting our process and findings; thought some of you might be able to use this in your own work. Or you can just critique the grunt out of it. Either way, you can find it here.

Just who is that Lil Maizer person?

From Dorothy... alas, I couldn't get the sound to upload.



Fair winds, Lil, and may you always have following seas. We're going to miss you; you've done great things with the Coast Guard.
