In the intervening 16 months, almost a dozen posts have offered ideas on many topics, including the following how-to’s (See my post of Jan. 3, 2008: organize yourself; Feb. 16, 2008: reach better decisions; March 5, 2008: improve organization charts; March 25, 2008: obtain better budgets from law firms; May 21, 2008: learn from a specialist lawyer if you are a generalist; Aug. 13, 2008: conduct a panel review; Aug. 15, 2008: compete work through a bidding process; Aug. 15, 2008: cut litigation costs in half; Sept. 3, 2008: conduct effective interviews; Nov. 21, 2008: deal with change; and Feb. 6, 2009: use e-mail more effectively.).
