STRATEGIES FOR RIDING A "DEAD HORSE"


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Ancient wisdom says that when one finds oneself riding a dead horse,
the best strategy is to dismount and perhaps get a new horse.
However, corporate management may try to direct an organizational
fix and implement many other strategies, including the following:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) Changing Riders.

2) Buying a stronger whip.

3) Falling back on: "This is the way we've always ridden".

4) Appointing a committee to study the horse.

5) Arranging a visit to other sites to see how they ride dead horses.

6) Increasing the standards for riding dead horses.

7) Appointing a group to revive the dead horse.

8) Creating a training session to improve riding skills.

9) Comparing the state of dead horses in today's environment.

10) Changing the requirements so that the horse no longer meets the standard of death.

11) Hiring an external consultant to show how a dead horse can be ridden.

12) Harnessing several dead horses together to increase speed.

13) Increasing funding to improve the horse's performance.

14) Declaring that no horse is too dead to beat.

15) Doing a study to see if outsourcing will reduce the cost of riding a dead horse.

16) Buying a computer program to enhance dead horse performance.

17) Declaring a dead horse less costly than a live one.

18) Forming a work group to find uses for dead horses.

19) Changing performance requirements for the horse.

20) Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position.

21) Hold a meeting with someone famous as guest speaker to convince everyone the horse is not dead.

I pedal... Therefore I am.
