When a five minute phone call saves our butt

This is the reason that good consultants and a healthy personal social network are essential.

Without our advisors and experts, we're nowhere. We can read and dig in and shoot in the dark, but sometimes we need consultants and experts to *help us solve our problems*; we have to escalate.

The reason I emphasized the "help us solve our problems" text above is that this is absolutely critical. We have to know that we have problems. We have to know that we have to solve them and we need to know that others can help us do this and that when the answer is given that we are able to apply the answer ourselves!
