Who says elephants can't dance?

A little late in the day, coming from my side, but if you have not read it, do so. A great book. For anybody in any IT company (or any industry) it is worth a read. Louis Gerstner touches upon almost all the elements in a company - people, culture, processes, technology, acquisition, herd mentality, empire building - the works. 

You may not run an IT company but this book, Who Says Elephants Can't Dance? will teach you a few things on projects as well and come in handy if you ever have to make an elephant dance...
