Book Description
Yes, you can laugh your way to a better-running, leaner business. The Fat Firm proves it. Combining the talents of serious business, management, marketing, and learning experts--and one dynamite cartoonist--this book brings you unforgettably funny lessons on the ways real companies work. Destined to be photocopied and posted on office bulletin boards everywhere, the cartoons in this book point up home truths on company politics, practices, and processes. Better yet, the sardine-factory-running sea lions in The Fat Firm show you there's a superior way! The Fat Firm is serious fun for everyone who cares about the place they work.

Card catalog description
Using a fresh mix of talented cartooning and seasoned management, marketing, and learning expertise, The Fat Firm reveals the inner workings of real companies. It illustrates a host of situations in which people, cultures, and processes allow excess, waste, and inefficiency - in other words, fat - to creep into a firm and weaken its competitive edge. Most important, the book offers innovative advice on how firms can slim down and stay successful over the long haul.
