Who would have thought management could do that to someone. As far as 90% of management advice, maybe that 10% just needs to keep getting repeated as often as possible (because people still don't do it). I also subscribe to the theory that 82.3457% of statistics are made up anyway. Keep on trucking on. Cheers, Jess Hey Wayne,

I think Sutton knows it too, but the sensationalist title of his manifesto gets more of us to read it and get the conversion rate up higher!
