I stand corrected: mistakes confessed by this blogger and an admonition to all managers

To err is human, to forgive the divine right of blog readers. When I realize I have been wrong on something, I should admit it and take the more correct view. All managers should strive for the same humility and flexibility. Just to set the record straight, here are some of my recent retractions (See my post of Dec. 16, 2007 #3: my mistake on Lovells; July 26, 2010: malpractice issues do afflict big law departments; July 15, 2010: extranets are all over the place; and July 14, 2010: pre-retention sign off by a supervisor.).
