Who Moved My Cheese? is the story of four characters living in a
"Maze" who face unexpected change when they discover their "Cheese" has
disappeared. Sniff and Scurry, who are mice, and Hem and Haw, little
people the size of mice, each adapt to change in their "Maze"
differently. In fact, one doesn't adapt at all...
This
timeless allegory reveals profound truths to individuals and
organizations dealing with change. We each live in a "Maze", a metaphor
for the companies or organizations we work with, the communities we
live in, the families we love places where we look for the things we
want in life, "Cheese". It may be an enjoyable career, loving
relationships, wealth, or spiritual peace of mind. With time and
experience, one character eventually succeeds and even prospers from
the change in his "Maze".In an effort to share what he has learned
along the way, he records his personal discoveries on the maze walls,
the "Handwriting on the Wall". Likewise, when we begin to see the
"writing on the wall", we discover the simplicity and necessity of
adapting to change.
Full of modern day
insight, the story of Who Moved My Cheese? invites individuals and
organizations to enjoy less stress and more success by learning to deal
with the inevitable change.
