This "Viewpoints" section is devoted to Alan's opinions, experiences
and ideas about business often inspired by his climbing. Currently there
are six short pieces plus another three on climbing. I will post more in
the future so please check back
Management covers ideas about managing people,
partners and business.
Leadership is about the lessons learned
in climbing and how I apply to them to business, including the use of humor
and meetings.
Career focuses on how, or if, to successfully
change jobs and politics in the workplace
These stories are my opinions based on 20+ years in the high technology
industry and strongly uses my experience in climbing big mountains. I hope
you enjoy them! Please let me know.

the on-line subscription fee
