I just started blogging at Psychology Today last week. This page and blog will remain the place where I put the lion's share of my effort. Most of my posts will appear here first, and then I will reprint some of them there to reach a different audience. The name of my blog there is Work Matters: Straight Talk and Solid Evidence About Organizational Life. I also will let you know when I write anything in Psychology Today that is now printed here. For starters, I thought a good way to introduce myself to Psychology Today readers was to introduce them to a range of my old posts, so I have put-up slightly updated versions of Strong Opinions, Weakly Held, A Strange But Effective Way to Stop Employee Theft, and my post about Jim March's assertion that most claims of originality are actually reflections of ignorance, hubris, or both.
If you have any suggestions about old posts that you would like me to reprint for Psychology Today readers, please let me know. Thanks.
Congrats Bob! Sounds like a great fit.
They are lucky to have you.
I love "strong opinions weakly held." It is a wonderful mantra for business and life.
All the best,
-Pam

Bob - I found the posts on "Otis Redding" and all the associated "management systems" stuff particularly valuable. And the more recent stuff on good bosses vs. bad bosses, especially in crisis. Finally, and this is a suggestion for here as well, your "I Believe" entries each call for some deeper materials and explorations IMHO. They all strike me as some of the most valuable things you have to say!
