Dead Horse theory

14 years 7 months ago

Dakota Native American tribal wisdom, passed on from generation to
generation, says: "When you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy
is to dismount and get a different horse."

However, in educative, corporate and governmental Southern Africa , more
advanced strategies are often employed, such as:

1. Buying a stronger whip.

2. Changing riders.

3. Appointing a committee to study the horse.

4. Arranging to visit other countries to see how other cultures ride dead horses.

5. Lowering the standards so that the dead horse can be included.

6. Reclassifying the dead horse as 'living impaired'.

7. Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse.

8
. Harnessing several dead horses together to increase speed.

9
. Providing additional funding /and or training to increase the dead horses’ performance.

10
. Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve the dead horse's performance.

11
. Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less costly, carries lower overheads and therefore contributes substantially
more to the bottom line of the economy than do some other horses.

12
. Rewriting the expected performance requirements for all horses.

And of course ...

13
. Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position!
