I am not a fan of short notices. I've been working for the government for the past 8 years and I learned that "working under pressure" is due to holders of managerial position who doesn't know how to manage. Before anything else, the appointed lead should know the big picture. It's similar to knowing the most probable ending of a movie. The financing transactions we had in 2006 were executed smoothly in the span of two weeks because all of us were aware of the big picture. So far, the most difficult was the Offering Circular -- the hundred plus plus investor handbook on everything about NPC/PSALM and ROP. Here are the things I learned with due diligence for the Offering Circular while I was in PSALM:

1. Familiarize self on the topics - Give it a day.
2. Introduction is on the recent activities of the economies.
3. Someone should really lead and impose deadlines.
4. Map and get commitments.
