Acknowledgments

Writing a book is project. And just as in any project, you need to rely on people to do great work with dedication, attention to detail, and a passion for what you are attempting to achieve. I have been blessed to have the assistance of such people.

First, I would like to thank my professional editor, Katy O’Grady. Her shared vision and commitment to this book was unending. For this, my second book, I was very fortunate to have Katy edit the manuscript and add clarity and impact to the messages I am communicating.

I also would like to thank my good friend and golfing pal Dave Prokop and his wife, Martha, who kindly opened their beautiful beach house in North Carolina to me for a few weeks, where the bulk of the manuscript was written. Being in a comfortable, beautiful environment that provides ample solitude is the best way to write effectively. Remember, Dave, everything breaks to the ocean when putting in the living room.

I would like to thank all my customers and project team members from whom I have learned so much over the years, on good projects and bad projects.

Lastly, I would like to thank my wife, Sonia, and son, Jonathan, for bearing with me as I worked on this project.
