Business Gets in the Way of the Blog

Several weeks ago, I wrote my last blog, citing that things were in the process of getting busier, and that the writing of the "Book" had been side tracked. Four months' later, I'm writing this one about the blogs being suspended.

For you that follow my articles religiously (yes there are a few), I apologize, but there just hasn't been time. If my client activity is any indication, our economy is picking up, even though it is hard to feel that way considering its fundamentals, like unemployment, foreclosures, and housing starts.

For me, it has been two primary accounts, one quite large, & one small to medium. One within the printing industry, and one outside it. Charter Steel is a billion dollar company in Saukville Wisconsin; they have asked me to do a SWOT Analysis, within the Strategic Planning arena. JP Graphics is a $5-10 million company, and is an offset, sheet-fed, 4-color printer in Appleton, Wisconsin.

They are each very different, but are similar in that they each have great people and strong leadership. I'm honored to work with each of them.

More to follow, but I just wanted to get you this update. Thanks for your patience & understanding.
