Subject: Can't Win! (off. to someone?)
A Japanese company and a Hamilton Health Care Group had a boat race and
the Japanese team won by a kilometre. The Health Care Group hired
analysts to figure out what went wrong. The analysts reported that the
Japanese Team had one person managing and seven rowing, while the
Health Care Group had seven managing and only one rowing. The Health
Care Group immediately restructured its team. Now they had one senior
manager, six management consultants and one rower. In a rematch the
Japanese team won by two kilometres, so the Health Care Group fired the
rower.
