<title>Mike Riegel: Three highly effective tactics to use today</title>
<pubDate>Wed, 01 Jul 2009 11:00:00 CDT</pubDate>
<description>As we begin the second half of the year, I wanted to start by thanking you for all of your hard work. Together we've closed a lot of business and I know we can continue that work this half. As I've met with Business Partners in my first month on the job, one of the first questions I always get is: How can I take advantage of all the great benefits IBM has to offer? Based on that question, I thought it would be good to share with you the three top rated offerings.</description>
