Jerry Weinberg's blog

http://secretsofconsulting.blogspot.co.nz/

I've been a big fan of Jerry's writing (there's so much of it, and so much more to learn) for some time, and am only now just beginning to understand a lot of it.

That's because Jerry is one of those people who possess that rare gift of explaining things of varying complexity in the most straightforward manner possible, and without making the student feel like an idiot. Rather they not only learn something, but feel and realize they've learned something often very useful and in-turn feel better about themselves.

Great teachers can do that. It's one thing to know a lot -  however explaining and describing that to others takes a lot of skill in terms of language, communication, knowledge, patience, and empathy.

Perhaps one day I'll get to meet Jerry in person and learn something from him directly.

For now, I'm content and honored to find his blog, pick up his many books when possible, and simply listen to the man.
