Faulty decision-making can have dire consequences, and when it comes to group decisions, the challenges are even greater. Join Dr. Jerry B. Harvey as he clearly illustrates why no organization wants to find themselves goin' to Abilene.

    Timeless Classic

    I was one of his numerous students and have owned probably five copies of this treasure. I have loaned or given them to managers and executives who have benefited from Jerry’s gifted and poignant storytelling. I needed a copy to keep. So do you.

    Item just as described. Fast Shipping. Gr8 Ebayer!

    I enjoyed the extra touch about the autograph. I ordered the book because I needed the book for my Leadership & Conflict Management class I took with my university. The autograph did cause some interesting discussion. Great reading.
