I can’t believe that the Corporate Barbarian Blog is a year old today! Boy, I’ve sure learned a lot in the past year. Last February, I was a blogging noob, and now, while I can’t say that I’m a seasoned veteran, at least I’m less of a noob. Here’s a selection of my favorite posts from my first year. I hope that you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them.

Are You on “Lombardi Time”? - You had to be doing something right to get the Super Bowl trophy named in your honor. It’s all about preparation and respect for others.
I’m especially excited that now I can have features like “A Year Ago on The Corporate Barbarian”, and act like I’ve been doing this for a long time. A big Thank You to everyone who’s taken the time to read my posts, especially those who’ve subscribed via email or an RSS reader. Stay tuned for more of my belligerent ramblings.
