Curbside Consulting

by Irwin M. Rubin

It should come as no surprise that the biggest day-to-day challenges seasoned executives invariably face involve interpersonal relationships. Why? Because regardless of how sophisticated our technologies and systems become, complex goals and tasks are achieved-effectively and efficiently, or not, by two or more people working together-effectively and efficiently, or not. The path to excellence is always marked by the quality of relationships. Given our human natures, there is no lock-step formula that will give us the 'perfect approach to every interpersonal challenge.' The best we can do is to do the best we can do and then step back and learn from our experiences. Curbside Consulting's fifty-two short essays are designed to provide such experiential learning. They are a synthesis of lessons I have learned through my own 42+ years of experience. Equally important, however, are the lessons I have learned from the experience of those I have been blessed to be able to teach and advise. As a result, Curbside Consulting is designed to be a vehicle to convey wisdom-theoretical knowledge forged and shaped by the hot iron of experience.
