The Abilene Paradox and Other Meditations on Management Paperback - 1996
by Jerry B. Harvey
First line
That July afternoon in Coleman, Texas (population 5,607), was particularly hot-104 degrees according to the Walgreen's Rexall's thermometer.
From the rear cover
When Jerry B. Harvey first coined the phrase "Abilene Paradox? in 1974, he set off shock waves among business people across the country. Using a common family experience, he pointed out that events often gather momentum and take on lives of their own, in spite of the fact that nobody wants to take part in them.Harvey offers insightful and often uproariously funny "meditations? on the craziness of this paradox in our daily work lives. With familiar stories presented in surprising ways, Harvey reveals how organizations set themselves up for failure by fostering an atmosphere of alienation, distrust, and fear of risk-taking among their members.
