Frogs & Business

The behavior of frogs offers an interesting analogy for business. Thrown in a pot of scalding water frogs are able to survive by quickly jumping out. However, if placed in lukewarm water that is being heated, they adjust to the rising temperature until they boil to death. Business often parallels the behavior of frogs. If a business maintains an awareness of its strengths and needs, employees continue to develop and learn while the business stays competitive and survives. If managers lull themselves into doing things the usual way, they will not notice the rising temperature until it is too late.

Your tools to stay competitive:
Choice, Fit, Learning, Managing & Coaching

These five words describe the most important aspects of a business:

  • Choice defines the decisions an organization faces in determining the vision, goals, objectives, personnel, capital expenses, and/or ongoing operations of the company.
  • Fit delineates how well the group works together as well as how the individual fits in his/her position.
  • Learning refers to the ongoing development of the organization.
  • Managing involves the day to day managing of the company's resources.
  • Coaching pertains to the ability to inspire, motivate, and promote the learning in the organization.
