Solving Problems in Strategic Planning and Productivity
Biographies of 3 of my colleagues who are currently working on Framework projects have been added to the website under About Us.
The links for Scott Hilton-Clarke, Dale Pilgrim-Wade and Ann-Marie Jarrett are currently under development, and pictures and updates will be added shortly.
I welcome their presence on the website, and hope that our clients will enjoy learning more about these fine professionals.
Folks,
I’ve been sharing some of the major Caribbean Acquisition Project (CAP) findings in the Framework Consulting blog, which you can reach from this site by clicking on “Blog” from the home page.
On a personal note, a journalist recently included a mention of my “Moving Back to Jamaica” blog in the Skywritings magazine, which is Air Jamaica’s inflight magazine. The excerpt can be viewed at http://francismove.blogspot.com
The topics that were addressed in December to January on the company blog, http://blog.fwconsulting.com:
In November, between plane trips and airports, I found the time to comment on the following topics in my blog — Chronicles from a Caribbean Cubicle:
Books I’m “Reading” Now — a summary of the different media I’m consuming at the moment
Thankfully It’s Only a “Number One” Bank — a tongue in cheek look at a customer service snafu at RBTT Bank
Meeting Kwame — it was fun to finally run into someone in person that I had developed a professional internet relationship with over several years
On Transitioning to Work in Jamaica — what a course to culturally prepare an expat executive might look like
Who You Are — my intelligent guess as to who might reading my blogs instead of their expense accounts!
Caribbean Time and Jamaica Time — why rushing to get more stuff done might be a waste of time
CSME — Offense or Defense — Why CSME is sounding too much like protectionism, and too little like the opportunity it is
We recently re-discovered a letter to the editor that was published in the Nov-Dec issue of the Harvard Business Review. We found that it still has some poignant points of view that we thought we’d share.

We have renamed the company’s primary blog to “Chronicles from a Caribbean Cubicle.” The link is http://blog.fwconsulting.com
The truth is that the blog is only very rarely written from a cubicle, and generally has its genesis in the seat of an airplane, but the power of alliteration is undeniable!
Francis Wade also maintains a personal blog, named “Moving Back to Jamaica” and can be reached from http://francismove.blogspot.com
To all the clients, associates, friends and acquaintances of Framework Consulting, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
