3 Minute Management Course

3 Minute Management Course

Lesson One:

An eagle was sitting on a  tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 
 "Can I also sit like you and do nothing?"
The eagle answered: "Sure, why not." So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested.
All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Management Lesson:  To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high  up.

Lesson Two:

A turkey was  chatting with a bull. "I would love to be able to get to the  top of  that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy."Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?" replied the bull."They're packed with  nutrients." The turkey pecked at a lump of  dung, and found it actually  gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree. The next  day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally  after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at  the top of the  tree. He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the  tree.Management Lesson: Bull shit might get you to the top, but it won't  keep you there._____________________________________

Lesson  Three:

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold,the  bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying  there, a cow came by
and dropped some dung on him. As the frozen bird lay  there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. The dung  was actually thawing him out! He laid there all warm and happy, and soon  began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to  investigate.Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile  of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.

Management  Lesson:       

(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your  enemy...
(2) Not everyone who gets you  out of shit is your friend...
(3) And  when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

This  ends the three minute management course.
