Hi all,

How do You like this?

Quote:::::

Management : *8 Monkeys* ... ..*really** very interesting*

(This is based on an actual experiment conducted in U.K.)

*They put eight monkeys in a room. In the middle of the room is a ladder,

leading to a bunch of bananas hanging from a hook on the ceiling.*

**

*Each time a monkey tries to climb the ladder, all the monkeys are sprayed

with ice water, which makes them miserable.*

**

*Soon enough, whenever a monkey attempts to climb the ladder, all of the

other monkeys, not wanting to be sprayed, set upon him and beat him up.

Soon, none of the eight monkeys ever attempts to climb the ladder.*

**

*One of the original monkeys is then removed, and a new monkey is put in the

room. Seeing the bananas and the ladder, he wonders why none of the other

monkeys are doing the obvious. But undaunted, he immediately begins to climb

the ladder.*

**

*All the other monkeys fall upon him and beat him silly. He has no idea why.

However, he no longer attempts to climb the ladder.*

**

*A second original monkey is removed and replaced. The newcomer again

attempts to climb the ladder, but all the other monkeys hammer the crap out

of him. This includes the previous new monkey, who, grateful that he's not

on the receiving end this time, participates in the beating because all the

other monkeys are doing it. However, he has no idea why he's attacking the

new monkey.*

**

*One by one, all the original monkeys are replaced. Eight new monkeys are

now in the room. None of them have ever been sprayed by ice water. None of

them attempt to climb the ladder. All of them will enthusiastically beat up

any new monkey who tries, without having any idea why.*

**

*This is how any company's policies get Established .***

Cheers!!!

Well Bala
I'ld like to say that it is not how company's policies are made, but that's how an Organizational culture is formed.
Let alone an organization, that's how culture is formed.
And when newer and newer monkey's are introduced, they'll make up stories for monkeys not letting each other to climb the ladder to reach the banana.
The original reason is always forgotten and some made up, creative reasons are put forth so as to justify the act.
Simple..... birth of superstition, isn't it?
Thanks Bala for sharing that excellent piece of experiment.
