Acknowledgments

My thanks go to the people who have made the fees possible, the wonderful clients with whom I've had the good fortune to work over the past two decades. I immodestly think that they're better off, and I know that I am. They are wonderful people.

Who says that nice guys finish last?

Here's to the most enduring clients: Dr. William Winter, Keith Darcy, George Rizk, Art Strohmer, Jarvis Coffin, Marilyn Martiny, Wayne Cooper, Lowell Anderson, Roseann Strichnoth, and Jerry Arbarbanal.

Deep appreciation goes to the wonderful editors at Jossey-Bass/Pfeiffer, headed by Kathleen Dolan Davies, the only human who speaks even faster than I do. It has been a joy to work with them all.

My thanks also go to Matt Davis for suggesting and assisting in this new edition.

Once again to L.T. Weiss, my love and affection—I know you hear me.
