This training manual has benefited from all the research and interviews I've conducted about time management and related topics over the years as well as especially to those interviews with IT professionals just for this project. A majority of the interviewees contacted me by responding to the various queries I posted in the free newsletter known as HARO (Help a Reporter Out), located at www.helpareporter.com. Others I contacted directly and asked them whether they were open to an interview, following up on a press release I had received or after reading a journal article, newspaper story, or discovering a book related to the various topics addressed in this training manual. I apologize in advance if anyone who contacted me, filled out my time management survey, or that I interviewed, has been unwittingly left out of this list. Also know that your time and effort are duly noted and appreciated whether or not you were quoted in the final training manual.
