THE PLAN

Supplied by one of my colleagues on the Business Warrior site (www.businesswarriors.co.za), this explains why we have bad service.

The Plan

In the beginning was the Plan:

And then came the Assumptions.

And the Assumptions were without form;

And the Plan was completely without substance;

And Darkness was upon the faces of the employees;

And they spoke unto their Supervisors, saying: “The Plan is a crock of sh.t and it stinks!”

And they went unto their Superintendents and said: “It is a pail of dung and none may abide the odour thereof.” And the Superintendents went unto their Managers and said unto them:“It is a container of excrement and it is very strong

Such that none here may abide by it.” And the Managers went unto the Senior Managers and said: “It is a vessel of fertilizer and none may abide by its strength.”

And the Senior Managers went unto their General Managers and said: “It contains that which aids plant growth and it is very strong.”

And the General Managers went unto the Managing Director and said unto him: “It promotes growth and is very powerful.”

And the Managing Director went unto the Board and said: “This powerful new Plan will actively promote the growth and efficiency of the Company.”

And the Board looked upon the Plan and Saw that it was good, and the Plan became Policy!
