'Every large or small community both of civilized and barbarous men has its traditional heroes. The memory of some one person or other who in his time stood out sharply from his fellows is preserved by them in tradition or by the written word often with fantastic embellishments of his person or his acts.

'Cy Wakeman does an excellent job of helping us to peel away the layers of rationalizations and excuses we create to avoid facing reality. First she did it with Reality-Based Leadership and now with Reality-Based Rules of the Workplace. Too often work seems harder than it should be. We can feel helpless in dealing with the realities of "today''s" workplace.

'Your job probably includes some responsibility for researching new trends or dreaming up innovative ideas. Lucky you! Alas, if you''re like most people, you probably never feel like you have enough time to devote to those important projects. Often the activities with the most learning opportunity get squeezed out of the schedule by project meetings, administrative work, e-mail, and other day-to-day items.

'Good management often requires that you go against all your instincts because, according to my experience, what we call instincts are often unreliable and even dangerous.
