What's Cooking? You!

They say that if you put a frog into a pot of boiling water, it will leap out right away to escape the danger. But if you put a frog in a kettle that is filled with water that is cool and pleasant and then gradually start heating the kettle until the water starts boiling, the frog will not become aware of the threat until it is too late.

 

The frog's survival instincts are geared towards detecting sudden changes. Don’t most of us suffer from this short-sightedness? Aren’t we always obsessing over short-term events and not taking cognizance of the bigger picture? This could be a major Six Sigma hindrance.

Thats probably many organizations look at quick wins rather than fundamental changes to processes and work streams that can have long term impact.

Vk, i suggest that we need to have a change of guard, i mean we need to stand for long term benefits by implementing the lean projects especially in the ITES and BPO industry.
