0611 - 1933 called Jake back
0612 -
061201 - Advised of results from SDS demo.  I explained Chuck's intent to call
061202 - Jake, per ref SDS 3 line 149 and ref DRP 1 line 14.
061203 -
061204 - Jake asked if Chuck and the group like the SDS demonstration.  I

061206 -
061207 - SDS is Complicated
061208 -
061209 - Jake said he felt SDS is complicated.  I concurred that SDS is compli-
061210 - cated because management is complicated, as we discussed at ref SDS 2
061211 - line 101.  A number of practices have to be improved all at once and
061212 - by definition that is "complicated," per ref OF 1 line 146 and further
061213 - at ref OF 1 line 605.
061214 -
061215 - Advised of research on using SDS on a Mac, per ref SDS 5 line 47.
061216 -
061217 -
061218 - Jake said he has only read the first page of the review on Stephen
061219 - Covey. submitted at ref SDS 2 line 133, via ref DIP 2 line 33.  He
061220 - feels it was overly critical.
061221 -
061222 -    I explained the review accepts Covey's recommendations on sound
061223 -    management practices, ref SDS 1 line 94, but argues SDS offers a
061224 -    better implementation strategy than Covey's idea of changing habits
061225 -    for the reasons at ref SDS 1 line 215.
