I am practicing what I preach in terms of strategic time management and executing against priorities.  I am excited about the writing project I'm doing for Oxford University Press.  Since this is a research-based project, I'll be wearing my scholar's hat for the next few months in addition to my usual consulting activities.

Also upcoming this fall and early winter....I'll be lecturing in several academic graduate programs.  Interacting with advanced graduate students is always a pleasure!

With these additional activities on my calendar, I intend to take a "sabbatical" from my blog postings until 2010. 

I've made the point on numerous occasions that there's only so much top quality work that any person can do.  When you undertake an important big project, something needs to be moved "off your plate" to make room for it.

In the meantime, please follow me on Twitter where I will continue to "tweet" regularly.

My Fast Focus on Your Success blog entries will return in 2010.  Till then, my best wishes.

Susan

Whole Foods CEO John Mackey recently wrote an op-ed piece in the Wall Street Journal criticizing Obama's health care plan.

Live today from the New York Stock Exchange, Battley Performance Consulting CEO Susan Battley discussed the wisdom of Mackey speaking out on this national hot-button issue on CNBC's Squawk on the Street.

 I am excited about the launch of our new corporate website.  This extreme makeover was akin to a complex building project:  tons of decisions, some technical, some creative, and lots having to do with content.  Whew!  Kristin von Bernthal, owner of Das Dollhaus did a super job.
