Subject: Analysis Executive Work Practices
Fortune Article June 1999

Dear Don,

You can open the Fortune article from this letter, and bookmark it for future reference. Can you comment on analysis in my record on June 25, with respect to the benefit of Communication Metrics to address the cause of executive failure cited by Forutne, and whether this condition is endemic to the culture of management, as related by an executive at Intel on May 27?

Be judicious accessing links, otherwise there is a tendancy to wander off point.

Sincerely,

THE WELCH COMPANY
