Email ID: mailumesh@gmail.com
Comment: I read this article you sent and found it really useful. I sincerely appreciate the effort you make in gathering and sending
such quality material. These articles not only help the readers better understand the ways of doing things and reaching goals
but also give them a chance to evaluate the paths that they have already set to reach the decided goal. I think it would help the
readers al great deal, if you also include the links of resources where the readers can find guidance regarding their specific
stream. For example, marketing personnel could sharpen their skills if they could get lessons on technicalities of it. Or teem
leads could perform better if they got nice tips on resource management / resource scheduling or function point execution
Etc. I wish you all the best and hope you would continue to send such quality material in the future too.
