The latest employment report had analysts scratching their heads. One ugly report does not a recession make, and things may not be as bad as it seemed. It could just be the same old lackluster recovery. Joel Quadracci had some interesting comments about Quad's restructuring efforts that have a good lesson for all managers. Honest data can take a beating in politics, whether they're in elections or in business offices. Does your business have a culture of frankness in the way it reports information?

Joe,

Good comments about honest data! How can anyone plan effectively if you're not seeing the real picture. Just ask those companies which had their rose-colored glasses on in '08-09. Oh, what do you mean you can't find them?
