There are three main protagonists who have a bamboo strong enough to take the weight of each of them at a time. The three Protagonists devise a plan. They stand in a straight line, resting the bamboo on their shoulders. Step by step they negotiate the hurdles coming their way. Helping each other out in the times of need and finally conquering the valley.
Lets look into the valley crossing problem which will give us the insight in how the things work in any organisation and how every link is important to achieve the goal as set by the organisation.If one of the link fails,the whole connected system can collapse
Observations:
- Each team member is fully safe once and half safe twice i.e. the risk is distributed.
- All of them will have to safeguard each other when they get into a risky situation i.e. the work is equitably distributed.
- All of them have to ensure instantaneous communication and cooperation to finish the task.
The Learning
Teamwork:
An organisation works primarily on the concept of “TEAMWORK”. All employees, as a part of organisation, work together to achieve a common goal. A team is a group of people with various complementary skills,working together towards a common vision. Members of a team operate with high degree of trust,accountability and interdependence.
Trust:
Trust is of utmost importance, be it in personal relationships of professional ones. Lack of trust creates doubts and becomes a major headwind for smooth flow of information.
Continuous Communication:
Just like in this puzzle, in real life organisations rapid and continuous flow of information in both directions is of utmost importance. Neither the employees nor the managers should be kept in the dark about new developments, however unsettling they may be.
Co-ordination:
In today’s fast moving world even a delay of few seconds causes major losses. Perfect co-ordination between the numerous chains involved ensures desired results.
