July 2010

Another Friday, which means it’s time for something fun and a little more lite. Here is an old short video I found the other day that shows how creative people can be with teamwork – even many years ago.

Once there were a group of frogs merrily hopping through the forest. They didn’t have a Frog3 care in the world until two of the frogs fell into a deep pit. All of the other frogs quickly gathered around the large pit and peered down into its deep vastness. They all begin to scratch their heads trying to come up with a way to help.

It is still surprising to hear about a company that does annual performance reviews – annually. I worked for such a company a little while back. We had a small dedicated HR department and a CEO that stressed the annual performance review each year. The problem was they were only once a year.

Here is a video on teamwork (or lack of) that I really enjoyed. Pay particular attention to the two guys on both ends of the stretcher. Watch them collaborate and then drop this poor guy.

I love parades, especially in the small town I live in. It is fun and you can get lots of free candy at my towns parades. All you have to do is wave like crazy and yell. The more excited you are the more candy you get from each of the floats. It is like Halloween in July! It is especially fun to observe people’s behavior at parades. The first few floats were greeted with great anticipation.
