Re: Tips on how to talk to SMEs

[punit shrivastava <punitshrivastava -at- gmail -dot- com>]

Hi Dan,
Sorry if it sounds like all do not help. I meant some are always there in
the group who do not cooperate upto professional level, and have observed
this as a common scenario.
In the same way there can be some SMEs too who may fail to cooperate. We
need to check what way to find to get cooperation from them, instead of
making them sound like Aliens.

Thanks
Punit
