		<description>Good advice Mark, and I have a big bucket! I hope, with no holes in it, dear Liza.

I&#039;ll email you when I get back with the results of the contemplation!</description>

		<description>Simon,
Perhaps your contemplation is coming from a place on denial? (sorry, poor joke time ;-)

Practically speaking, with the January tsunami of layoffs in US and UK, maybe lots of IT folks are in &quot;keep heads down mode&quot;. 

In such cases, discretionary spending on coaching when perceived as a &quot;career enhancer&quot; goes out the proverbial window.

Seems to me the trick is to find where the &quot;deal flow&quot; is and then stand in the middle of it with your bucket :-)</description>
