Lesson Number One
A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day. A small rabbit
saw
the crow, and asked him, Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day
long?The crow answered: Sure, why not. So, the rabbit sat on the
ground
below the crow, 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 Number 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 havent got the energy.Well,
why
dont you nibble on some of my droppings? replied the bull. They packed
with
nutrients. The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it
actually
gave him enough strength to reach the first branch of the tree. The
next
day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally
after a fourth night, there he was proudly perched at the top of the
tree.
Soon he was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot the turkey out of
the
tree.
Management Lesson?
Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.
Lesson Number Three
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold, the
bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was
lying
there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird
lay
there in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize how warm it was.
The
dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy,
and
soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and
ame
to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird unde
the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him!>
Management Lesson?
1) Not everyone who drops shit 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, keep your mouth shut!

I haven’t laughed that hard. That’s good Aesop’s fable Sreenivasan. Who would have known management lessons could have so much humor? Good one. :)
