After Countless Suggestions, It’s Terrible

focus groups business cartoon

I was reading an interview recently with the head of a company who said something about their recent success being the result of countless suggestions from employees.

First off, I was surprised that this company not only was interested in employee ideas, but actually asked for them.

Sounds great right?

Then I started thinking back on some of my past co-workers and ideas they might have floated if they’d been asked. Add in a few focus groups and consultants and this cartoon just sort of presents itself.
