Good old lessons in teamwork
from an age-old fable

The Tortoise
And
The Hare

Prasad PM 44
 The moral of the story is that

slow and steady wins the race.

Prasad PM 44 The story continues….

Hare challenged the
tortoise to another race.
The tortoise agreed. Ok.

Can we have
another race?

Prasad PM 44
 Moral of the story

Fast and consistent will always beat the

slow and steady.

The story continues….

Prasad PM 44
Tortoise thought for a while,
and then challenged the hare to
another race, but on a slightly
different route. Can we have another race? This
The hare agreed. time we’ll go through a different
route.

Sure!

Rahul PM 24
 Moral of the story
First identify your core competency and
then change the playing field to suit your
core competency.

What
should I
do?

Rahul PM 24
 Great! I think we could
do it much better, if we
two help each other.

Hi, buddy. How

about doing our last
race again?

Rahul PM 24
There, the tortoise took over and
swam across with the hare on his
back.
On the opposite bank, the hare
again carried the tortoise and they
reached the finishing line
together. They both felt a greater
sense of satisfaction than they'd
felt earlier.
 The moral of the story

It's good to be individually brilliant and to have

strong core competencies; but unless you're able to
work in a team and harness each other's core
competencies, you'll always perform below par
because there will always be situations at which
you'll do poorly and someone else does well.

Teamwork is mainly about situational leadership,

letting the person with the relevant core competency
for a situation take leadership.
