- 25. Cecil's Good New

- In this time of holiday spirit, gift giving, and general good will, I have a heart-warming story to share. OK, it's not quite "It's a Wonderful Life," but the characters are nearly as surprising as those ...
- 26. Cecil’s Addition/Subtraction
- (Management)
- Last week I was in the New York area, and for part of the week I was in New York City with a client. For me, New York City is both a fantasy land and a place of terror. What I love about the place is the ...

- 28. Cecil's Offlin

- 29. Cecil's Getting Wor

- 31. Cecil's Unveilin
- (Management)
- I think that I was even more thrilled than Scott was when I showed up at the UConnect Conference in Orlando last week. According to him, it was the first time I'd kept a promise to show up... at least ...

- 34. Cecil's Cross Border Advic

- 35. Cecil's Holiday Wis
- (Management)
