Eddie Lopez 1956 – 2023

I cleared out the Golden Delicious the evening before a…

Punitive

The punitive assignment of a couple of external ‘management communication’ workshops is the latest folly imposed by a hapless ‘management’ that has no clue I’ve been teaching and facilitating such things across 20 countries.
