Six Years of Point Lookout

A collection of editions of Point Lookout from 2001 through 2006

by Richard Brenner

Six Years of Point Lookout is a collection of short articles that give tips, insights and new perspectives on life in the modern workplace.

Skip to the Details: How To OrderHave you ever found yourself sitting in a meeting, listening for the third time to drivel you just couldn't believe people would actually say out loud, and wondering how much longer this would go on until they finally agreed to what anyone with half a brain knew they'd have to do anyway? And then groaned to yourself when you realized that your next meeting would be more of the same?

Six Years of Point Lookout (2001-2006)Or have you ever had the kind of "forehead-slapping moment" when you suddenly realized why the group didn't go for your last suggestion, and then wondered how you could possibly have been so naïve as to have proposed it in the first place?

Six Years of Point Lookout is filled with the insights you need to make sense of it all. It helps you avoid the traps and pitfalls that await you at work, and it guides you into new choices that can make life at work more enjoyable and rewarding.

Six Years of Point Lookout is a collection of articles from the 2001 through 2006 issues of Point Lookout, my weekly email newsletter of tips, insights and perspectives that help people in dynamic problem-solving organizations find better ways to work with each other. It gives concrete, nuts-and-bolts methods for dealing with real-life situations. It's a massive collection — 661 pages in all.

These articles are also available in three separate, smaller volumes: Geese Don't Land on Twigs covers 2001 and 2002, Why Dogs Wag Their Tails covers 2003 and 2004, and Loopy Things We Do covers 2005 and 2006. Six Years has two advantages: it has cross references between articles throughout the volume, and its price is a savings of USD 11.90 compared to the three volumes if purchased separately.

Six Years of Point Lookout makes a wonderful and unique gift for a friend, a colleague, or a spouse who faces any of the ordinary — and many of the not-so-ordinary — challenges of working today.
