Hey SimonsWords82 - Des here. Just wanted to say, I love this article, but it's not by me.

It's a story from Gerry Weinberg's "The Secrets of Consulting". Gerry is an exceptional writer, who sadly passed away 2 days ago.

Hi Des - thanks for the reply and insight I did not know that. I'll have a read of The Secrets of Consulting as it's the core of what I do and despite not enjoying this anecdote I'm sure there's some good stuff in there.

Meanwhile, keep up the great work you and your team do, I'm a big fan.

Edit: P.S. It's Simon Swords - an Irish name, we've got a castle just north of Dublin apparently that I've yet to claim!

Ah! I know the castle well. Totally worth claiming: http://www.fingaldublin.ie/interior-pages/activities-attract...
