&lt;P&gt;This is an incredible blog. &amp;nbsp;I think you should write a book based on this - it would be a powerful read for other architects.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;As for the acknowledgement, you humble me with your compliment. &amp;nbsp;It is I who am priveleged to have worked with brilliant and passionate people such as yourself. &amp;nbsp;I learned much from you during our time together at the big M.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Take care and best wishes for continued inspirational success.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Great blog on the 'softer' side of an architect's skills! This is exactly what I meant for personal skills in our discussion, about technical, process and personal skills.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Do write a book or whitepaper and show everybody we're not only about bits and bytes.&lt;/P&gt;

Gabriel,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Great blog that captures the Leadership attributes and characteristics of an architect!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you look at the other side of the performance equation, "softer" skills are as important as technical/tactical skills especially for Enterprise Architects and Enterprise Solution Architects. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks,&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Great article, I looked for your e-mail address but could not find it. I wanted to let you know the text in your tables is cutting off in ie 7,8 and ff, chrome. I actually had to view the source to read the entire article :)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks again,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Shane&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Enterprise Solution Architects and Leadership</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/gabriel_morgan/archive/2009/01/17/enterprise-solution-architects-and-leadership.aspx#9636534</link><pubDate>Sat, 23 May 2009 05:45:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9636534</guid><dc:creator>Gabriel Morgan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;@Shane,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your kind comment. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regarding the table being cutt-off, hmmm, I use Live Writer to edit and publish blog posts and didn't see an option to play with the HTML table format. Rather than viewing source code, however, you should be able to view the text if you expand the window's width.&lt;/p&gt;
