New Pragmatic Manager Email Newlsetter About Programs Posted

Posted by: Johanna Rothman on October 12, 2011

I’ve been keeping up with my email newsletters this year—at least, better this year than previously. Yesterday, I posted “Organizing Programs.” I received several emails agreeing with that one. Apparently, I struck a nerve.

If you think you are supposed to be on my email list, and you are not receiving the emails, please let me know. I have many good emails that bounced yesterday. I know, because I correspond with you! If you are on the list, and you would like to be off, and you want me to take you off, no problem, I will. If you are not on the list and you would like to be on, I can do that too. I only want you on the list if you want to be there :-)
