True skills are learned, not inhaled.

Lisa Haneberg interviewed me recently and we talked Web Meetings among other things.

If you haven't read Lisa Haneberg's Management Craft blog, you've really missed out on something. She's a terrific and thoughtful writer. I have been lucky to have her on my podcast, The Cranky Middle Manager, on several occasions but this time she turned the tables and interviewed me!

In the first half of the discussion we talked about The Cranky Middle Manager Show and how hard it is for managers in today's environment.

We spent the second half talking about web meetings:

• Why it's important they're done well
• Why so many webinars suck
• Some tips for making them less painful
• A shameless plug for Greatwebmeetings.com

Take a listen.... I think you'll enjoy it.

Thanks Lady!
