Hi. I help leaders solve problems and seize opportunities. I work with my clients to become better leaders and managers. We identify pragmatic approaches to help them them ship the right product at the right time, and recruit and retain the best people.

Send me email, jr [at] jrothman.com.

My external web site is http://www.jrothman.com. I have lots of articles and newsletter samples there. I'm a regular columnist for StickyMinds.com

Take a look at my two blogs,

• Managing Product Development
• Hiring Technical People

If you read either of them and have comments, either post the comments or let me know. They have RSS feeds if you prefer to use a newsreader.

I've written these books:

• Manage Your Project Portfolio: Increase Your Capacity and Finish More Projects August 2009
• Manage It! Your Guide to Modern, Pragmatic Project Management (June 2007)
• Behind Closed Doors: Secrets of Great Management (with Esther Derby, 2005)
• Hiring The Best Knowledge Workers, Techies & Nerds: The Secrets and Science of Hiring Technical People (2004)
• Corrective Action for the Software Industry (with Denise Robitaille, 2004)
