After our CEO gives the usual company update complete with charts and graphs that measure our success, I am introduced. The crowd falls silent. The stage is backlit red and the curtain rises.
“Ladies and gentlemen may I present the puppets of medieval Sicily. This art form became popular in Sicily late in the Middle Ages during the fifteenth century, and marionettes are still considered an important part of Sicilian culture."
After the show I send out a Survey Monkey to see what people thought of the show.
Here are the results:
Warehouse - 87% loved it!
IT - Thanks for using old technology
Sales - What does this have to do with selling?
Accounting - How much did this cost?
Leadership Team - We are convening a Leadership Team Meeting and we will place it on the Leadership Team Meeting Agenda for discussion.
HR - We will let you know once the Leadership Team lets us know.
Later that day, I receive a meeting notice from HR.
Finally, I can explain myself.
