    It's Saturday night. Fortunately, there are no galas or business functions tonight. Let's stay home by the fire and enjoy a glass of wine and a little fine music. No business. No pressure. No stress.

    (Ring! Ring! Ring!) "Grant, it's a reporter. He'd like to get your opinion and comment on what?s happening in healthcare." "Hello. Grant Walsh speaking." (Pause to listen.) "Well, John, are we on the record or off the record? Let's go off the record so that I can give you some copy and then we'll go on. Off the record please until I say."

    That's the way life is lived in the executive fishbowl. You never quite know when you're on the record, but it is safer to assume that you're always on.

    I've chosen "On the Record" as the name for this newsletter because you and I will always assume that the comments and commentary here are for your eyes and, at your discretion, for everyone's eyes. These comments are a resource to support you in the important work that you do.

    A prospective client recently read my business card aloud, "EC Murphy Walsh — The Ultimate Executive Resource." She asked, "What do you do?" I responded, "What do you need?"

    That's it, isn't it? The Ultimate Executive Resource is a timely, effective response to executive needs. At EC Murphy Walsh, we seek not to be famous but rather to support you quietly, behind the scenes, with the things that can help you to be successful. Your success is our success and our reason for being.

    In each On the Record column, we will discuss issues, trends, problems and solutions. We will offer assistance and support and refer you to the EC Murphy Walsh website for additional information.

    We want to be quietly helpful to you. We want you to see us as the ultimate executive resource.

    Why would a busy executive like you do business with EC Murphy Walsh? Confidentially, don't tell anyone: we want to make you look good without claiming credit. Also, we will
    • Improve your quality.
    • Reduce your cost.
    • Improve your employee morale.
    • And, save you administrative time.
    All of that makes you look good. And, you're already good or you wouldn't be where you have arrived.

    Check us out. Call for a no obligation consultation on the issues affecting your success. We are your Ultimate Executive Resource.

    -- Grant B. Walsh
