Animals, Inc is a time-tested business parable that has been tremendously popular with Gallup clients for more than 30 years: it's a favorite at corporate seminars & has even been released on video. It's the story of a group of animals who want to get rid of their shortcomings, or weaknesses, in order to make themselves more efficient. They decide to attend a school to learn how to improve themselves. But as the rabbit struggles to learn how to swim, as the pig attempts to climb trees, & as the other animals try to improve their weaknesses, they end up frustrated, unhappy, & quarrelling with each other. This simple but powerful parable explains a basic, very vital business lesson: that people should learn how to focus on their strengths in their workplace & offices rather than concentrating on their weaknesses.
