At many stages in my professional career I have had exceptional mentors, but I've never had one ride to work with me on a daily basis.  For the past month the podcasts of the web site, www.manager-tools.com have provided insight into several management tools that I previously did not command.  I, definitely, don't rely on *just* podcasts to direct me and my team, but I do like the thoughts and discussions that this particular podcast has stimulated in my work place.

One of the tools that I have implemented in both my personal and professional life is the introduction tool that was released a couple of months ago, and has really pushed me to develop new relationships.  Plain and simple, I don't know how any one can afford to not subscribe to this podcast.

(BTW, I'm an avid Zune fan, too... the wireless synch is what sold me)
