  That's only the first file in the series. There are -B.pdf and -C.pdf files as well. http://heller.brandeis.edu/executive-education/maine-2012/may/pdfs/BHLP-102-READING-Carter-B.pdf http://heller.brandeis.edu/executive-education/maine-2012/ma... http://heller.brandeis.edu/executive-education/maine-2012/may/pdfs/BHLP-102-READING-Carter-C.pdf http://heller.brandeis.edu/executive-education/maine-2012/ma... And here's a convenient link to all three, apparently an Apache feature I didn't know about: http://heller.brandeis.edu/executive-education/maine-2012/may/pdfs/BHLP-102-READING-Carter-D.pdf http://heller.brandeis.edu/executive-education/maine-2012/ma... > Multiple Choices > The document name you requested (/executive-education/maine-2012/may/pdfs/BHLP-102-READING-Carter-D.pdf) could not be found on this server.

I suspect that Brandeis.edu is violating their license agreement by hosting these, and also that the license agreement was designed by someone who really doesn't like the Internet or computers: > Not to be reproduced, modified, stored, or transmitted without prior written permission of the copyright holder or agent.

    You are correct, if you want to use this for team training - you should really buy it, it isn't expensive: https://www.deltaleadership.com/store/shopexd.asp?id=15 https://www.deltaleadership.com/store/shopexd.asp?id=15

      It seems like that case is missing a piece. Where is the final analysis showing the results of choosing to race or not? Are there separate instructor notes somewhere?

        Having had this in Policy school (albeit a decade ago), I remember the follow-on class basically being: "So, this happened in real life. Except it wasn't racing -- it was the Challenger". (A room of 70 promptly headdesked). What jumped out in the class discussion was how focused the conversation was on economic risks and rewards (x% chance of y payoff, etc), and how "life of the driver" was basically never mentioned as one of the risks of proceeding. Anyway, eventually you learn to play "spot the Challenger graph" from a mile away. I think it showed up 4 times in assorted courses I've taken over the years (re: Data Visualization and Organizational Design).

          > how "life of the driver" was basically never mentioned as one of the risks of proceeding. To be fair, a failed engine rarely causes the driver to die.

    "an Apache feature I didn't know about" - looks like mod_speling, one of those old-school features Apache has from back when the expectation of a website was that is was just a bunch of user's public_html directories exposed as /~username/, designed to deal with things like case sensitivity and typos in URLs.

      Speling. I love that!
