Fish! Philosophy 1

[Rhys666]

Has anyone had experience working within the IT branch, (or for an IT firm), of a company employing the fish! philosphy in the work environment?

What kind of 'activities'/'entertainments' were utilised?

How did the company employ the philosophy?

What effect did it have?

My employer, (FTSE 100 non IT, with in-house IT dept), are now showing the Fish! videos and leaving the changes to us, but are allowing us to embrace as much of/as little of this philosophy as we feel we should, (no more management dictates instructing us on how to enjoy the job! Hoorah!), but as I've only seen the vid.'s today was curious as to how this may have been utilised elsewhere...

For anyone curious as to what the hell I'm waffling on about check out

It's interesting if nothing else...

Thought out... Maybe,
Opinionated... Probably
But it is only an opinion!

well..tdy in my email was an email from my boss:

"....... this will be a fun upbeat meeting which will include lunch. Find out what the Fish Philosophy is all about!"

I had a feeling I knew what this was about when I started reading this forums discussions...and I am definitely not looking forward to this mtg...another "dog and pony show", if you will.....the morale would be up if we got rid of the ineffective managers we have added to our company lately...

fun upbeat meeting

Hmmm.

Well, I suppose Friday always was the traditional fish 'n' chips day!

I want to be good, is that not enough?
