Fried Rice: The Law Of Team Work Analogy

Actually, i've got this inspiration from cooking activity in the kitchen. In weekend, usually i always spend my time in the kitchen to cook. Well, although i'm not the worldwide chef, but actually it's enjoyable enough to eat your own dishes. I always cook typical of rice dishes such as fried rice, or yellow rice... always related with rice. There's several ingredients that i used for cooking fried rice: for example chili, egg, corned beef, oil, sausage, meat ball, etc. Do you know that suddenly i have a story how the team work is look like?
Yes, there's so much ingredient there... with lots of characteristic. Chili... it's hot, represent a person who always strict, extrovert, and always to the point. Sometimes we hate this kind of person, but we needed this 'madman' person to give team a taste. There's also an egg person, a person who also give a taste but we will not know him/her until we break the outer skin of egg and bring the inner egg out. It represent they who looks like can't, but if we give him/her a pressure, they will give you a potential. Useful to contribute at your team. There's also an oil, you see, if we give oil a heat, it will react faster than the other. This is the typical of reactionary person. Once you give them a heat, they will getting hot too. Sometimes, this person was not the one who patience enough and often too act reactionary... but this also the type who fast enough to accept the job once they are asked to do some job. There's also corned beef, sausage, and meat ball. Different shape but actually they are who give a delicious taste of the team work. And the last there are the type of the rice person. At the first time, they do not know nothing, but in the further processes, they learn much from the others, and so, they became a delicious or more experienced than ever.
Ok, now, who is the leader? The leader is the one who smart enough to see a strength and weakness from the other team. He/she not only judging based on their weakness, but more to know how to combine their strength and how to make other's strength to balancing other's weaknesses. And so, the leader is the one who have the vision.... He/she is not the one who have scattered minds, only see the person from it's individual form... but have the vision how is the combination of his/her team. So, the leader in this analogy is the one who cook and make the dishes itself. So, he/she know exactly how to make a delicious dream by combining his/her team strength and weaknesses.
Too many leader nowadays only think about themselves and doesn't aware about other people. The result is rebellion and chaos because their team feel that they are not useful. But, if the leader know exactly... have a full picture from every pieces of puzzle.. then he/she successful to fulfill not only his/her dream, but also the dream of all the team.
Do not only the hot of the chili. Do not only see a hard skin of the egg. Do not only see the reactionary of the oil. Do not only see the meat taste without combining it further. Do not only see the emptiness taste of the rice. But see their characteristic to build a better vision, a better dream.... and a deliciousness of the victory of your team.
Well, in the end, i've finished my cook activity already. Hmmmm.... the fried rice that i've made was taste so good.... oh GOD, now i really hungry... and after write this blog post... i paln to really cook the fried rice. See you again in the next post, may this post become a fresh motivation and inspirational for you...
