THANKS . . .
. . . are due to the editors of the San Jose Mercury News, who
recognized that there are many people out there with questions
about how to manage at the workplace. Thanks also to readers of
that newspaper and others elsewhere in the U.S. who thought
that I might have answers.
I am grateful to Karen Thorpe for helping me with the seemingly
never-ending task of putting this book together, always maintain-
ing an even temper, even when I lost mine. But, most of all, I am
indebted to my wife, Eva. Through countless "one-on-ones," she
did her best to make sure that my advice was practical, my prose
readable, and that I dealt with the questions that were posed and
not the ones I wished had been. There probably has never been a
muse more constructively critical of her subject!
