Sitting with Elephants: Lessons in Humility from the African Bush, Enhanced and Expanded Second Edition

When Ronald Dulek and his wife decide to shake up their routine with an impulsive move to the South African bush, they’re plunged into a life of unexpected adventure. From lions and leopards to zebras and baboons, the wild surrounds their remote home--but it’s the elephants who become the soul of their story. As the couple learns to live with nature’s beauty and danger just beyond their doorstep, Sitting with Elephants blends humor, heart, and humility in a reflection on the lessons the wild has to offer.

Ronald Dulek is the John R. Miller Professor of Management at the University of Alabama. He is author of Who Killed Keyboard? Lessons in Leadership and Email as well as eight other books and over fifty refereed academic articles.
