It's a bad thing. What it means is that you, as a manager, should not believe that you can manage natural cycles. That which goes up will go down, that which goes down will go up. The key is to know when you're in-cycle and out-of-cycle. In other words, manage the outliers, not the averages. Sam's mistake is that he doesn't understand that systemic collapse of the global economy is an outlier, not a "normal" cycle. It's like equating the handling of a Scotty with a Blue whale: sure they're both mammals but one is extraordinarily larger than average, and thus deserves unique management. Clinton's recession was in-cycle, Bush's depression is one of the greatest failures of fiscal management in the history of Earth. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:284448 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
