If you have right people for the job, you can do many things in the corporate. This is not just a mere saying but is indeed a gospel truth. The question is who the right person is and how to identify the right person. Whether the question is well understood/answered by the corporate or not, some of the tiny insects in the nature have understood and are following the above doctrine in nature and are extremely successful also. They have some finest message for the corporate.
We all know that termites can cause great damage to mankind. They destroy all the wood works, papers and even the buildings. The interesting fact is that termites cannot digest the wood or papers they eat. How an insect that can survive in nature by eating something that it cannot digest. It may appear very strange and shocking.
The evolution has helped the termites to employ certain group of protista such as Trichonympha to do the job of cellulose digestion. Termites bite and swallow the wood piece or paper voraciously and the Trichonympha digest the same in the gut of the termite and convert them as food to its host.
Without the protista in the gut of the termites, these insects cannot eat the wood or paper. The message to be drawn by the corporate from the above is that only right people can bring success. Only when the corporate employ the right people for the right job, execution excellence can be achieved. How evolution has enabled the termite to do so in nature.
Another important message corporate has to infer from the above is that any appears to be an impossible wish/objective the corporate has, if the right people are employed, all such appears to be an impossible wish or target of the corporate would become an easy task to achieve.
Corporate employees also need to learn their big lesson from the above. Have a right subordinate for the right job. Any big commitment the boss would have made to the top management can be easily achieved or done, if the right subordinate is engaged for the job.
The gastronomic delight from the insect world has lot to offer to corporate. No insect in the nature has as powerful as termites in eating the wood. Interestingly the insect that eat the wood cannot digest the very food it eats.
If the corporate keep right people for the right job, success would blossom like the success of termites that eats woods aggressively without the ability to digest the same. If the choice of employees were not right, the result would be disease like, how one would be when pathogens enter the system.
