"Harvey's meditations are a joy. They are the most exquisite essays
on management that I've read in over a decade. In fact, this is the
only book about management that I've really loved." --Warren
Bennis, coauthor of Leaders: The Strategies for Taking Charge and
author of Why Leaders Can't Lead
"Jerry Harvey has become a legAnd in his own time with the success of The Abilene Paradox--a principle of group behavior that has application in corporations, government, academia, and family alike. Now he takes aim at a host of other sacred organizational norms and, in succession, dismantles each. You'll smile at his insight and laugh at his wit." --Kenneth H. Blanchard, coauthor of The One-Minute Manager
