I would like to thank those who directly contributed thoughts and feedback to this text. First and foremost, my business partner, prime critic and wife, Catherine Jo Spence, whose contributions balanced mine. Secondly, Drs. David Manning White and Catherine White provided considerable encouragement in many ways; Catherine grilled me grammatically and conceptually more than any other reviewer to my benefit. I would also like to thank my peers who provided critical review of initial drafts: Dr. Donald Martin and Christian Gehman. Particular appreciation is needed for those who suffered with the burden of debugging the actual software that implements the management concepts: Maria Morgan, Cheng Yeh, Leesa Pendley and Miev Heak. More general review and criticism on content and readability were provided by those who tested my challenge that Managing without Managers would improve their place of employment. And, I would like to thank my mother for the special perspective she gave me on the nature of problems.
