We have a new feature this month called “Guess Who?” It’s basically like “20 Questions,” and you, the reader, has to guess who the subject is. Here’s how it the process worked. I listed all of the associates on an Excel spreadsheet and then had Excel assign each one a random five digit number. I excluded myself, obviously. Then I asked a volunteer to select a totally random five digit number and the person whose number matched closest was chosen as the subject. I reached out to “said person” and under “the cloak of secrecy” asked him or her 20 questions. Can you guess who it is? Their identity will be revealed in next month’s “Guess Who” article.
