And, of course, rule 13: Fall behind your schedule early. That way you have more time to catch up. ;)

Elyse,

Please email me. I would like to discuss your PM ideas in healthcare outside of this blog if you don't mind.

Thanks,

Mark

Greetings,

I read with interest, some Ahh... and some laughter, your postings. Am currently working to change the culture of our organization regards to PM. Began this by introducing the business owner concept and moving forward. Wish I had found this site sooner.

Would welcome additional offline conversations.
