This is a story about a Japanese company and an American company who decided to have a boat race. The Japanese crew won by a kilometre.
Very upset at their humilating loss, the Americans hired consultants to work out what had gone wrong. The consultant's report took 6 months and cost a lot of money.
It reported that the reason why the Japanese had won was because the Japanese had ONE person managing and SEVEN rowing........while the Americans had SEVEN managing and ONE rowing.
The American company immediately restructured their team and invited the Japanese to a second race.The Americans now proposed to have ONE senior manager, SIX management consultants and ONE rower.
This time, the Japanese won by two kilometres ...... So the American company fired their rower !!!!!
