The thin book of naming elephants torrents download
The script is pretty awful and the story more a collection of scenes than a coherent narrative. A lot of the time I had to rely on my knowledge of the book to work out what was going on. It's not likely to change anyone's ideas about mountaineering though I suppose there is some schadenfreude in seeing rich doctors and socialites with no or limited climbing experience attempting to wipe themselves out in various stupid ways at very high altitudes.
The Darwin prize of course goes to the client who stepped outside of his tent one morning with only his boot liners on his feet and went for a fatal skid down the mountain. I felt a little sorry for the guides, generally people who love the mountains, having for economic reasons to take such awful people up them; in my day as an amateur climber I at least got to choose my companions, though some of them were pretty wild.
The exploitation of the Sherpas is also hard to take; even though they are willing participants, climbing has become part of their economy, and there are few other options. If I had seen Lopsang Sherpa struggling up the Lhotse face with Sandy Pitman's 30lb satellite phone I would have chucked it down the nearest crevasse. And if Sandy complained, I would have invited her to join it.

Important reading for anyone whose organization has some dependency on safety, sound decision making and diversity. That's you. Jun 26, Ryan Barretto rated it really liked it. A very interesting read on getting people to surface the things they know about but are reluctant to discuss - for reasons ranging from job loss, to plain shyness.
Mar 07, Michael Delaware rated it really liked it. The author takes on a subject often hidden within organizations: the undiscussable subject. Drawing from several examples in the rise and fall of corporations, as well as insight into the Challenger and Colombia accident investigations within NASA, this book makes an argument for creating a safe environment for members of a group to freely communicate without retribution or backflash.

Having been a part of number organizations over the years, as I turned the pages of this little book I was pleased to discover I was not alone in my experiences. If you have ever felt crushed for speaking your ideas within an organization, or witnessed others receive such treatment, then you will likely gain a large measure of relief in reading this book.
This book should be a basic manual for anyone seeking a leadership role, as well as anyone working at any level in the corporate world. The only thing I would have liked to see in this book would have been more broad historical examples, drawing from more than just corporate culture. There would have certainly been fodder for larger examples within the many branches of the U.
Nevertheless, it is a brilliant book, and perhaps it is at its best just as it is. Mar 25, Mobill76 rated it liked it. This was great. We see these horrible situations inside corporations that make us feel miserable and helpless because we're not empowered to do anything about them or to even know why the situations exist.
Naming Elephants uses some case histories of disasters as examples of what is probably going on inside the average corporation. Disasters such as the Challenger accident and the Enron scandal are used because there was a lot of investigative documentation produced to find out what went wrong. It sounds plausible. The diagnosis and treatment for such a diseased corporation might work. Now, if only we weren't the peons at the mercy of a catastrophic failure on re-entry instead of being managers who might be able to do something about it.
