So the other day I mentioned that I had written to Joe Hallinan, the author of 'Why We Make Mistakes.' Well he called me today! I'm so excited!
He was really super nice, and not angling for a consulting or speaking gig the way I wondered if he might be. (Which honestly my boss is not against) He was genuinely happy that I liked his book, and that I was excited about something he was excited about. He gave me the names of two PhD's to get in touch with, one at Harvard/MIT and one at the U of Illinois, who are specifically researching the kind of problem I was asking about.
Talk about going above and beyond!!
