Con kieán

Moät truyeän nguï ngoân...

Hay laø

Coù theå khoâng phaûi....

Every day, a small ant arrives at work very early

and starts work immediately.

Moãi ngaøy, chuù kieán nhoû ñeàu ñi laøm raát sôùm vaø baét tay vaøo vieäc

ngay.

He produces a lots and very happy.

Chuù kieán laøm vieäc raát gioûi, vaø luoân vui veû.

The Chief, a lion,

was surprised to see

that the ant was

working without

supervision.OÂng chuû cuûa chuù, laø con sö töû, raát ngaïc nhieân khi

thaáy chuù kieán laøm vieäc maø khoâng caàn söï

giaùm saùt.

He thought if the ant can

produce so much without

supervision, wouldn’t she

produce even more if she

had a supervisor!Con sö töû suy nghó, chuù kieán ñaõ coù theå laøm toát maø khoâng caàn giaùm saùt, vaäy neáu coù

ngöôøi giaùm saùt thì chaéc chuù kieán coøn

laøm toát hôn gaáp boäi!

So he recruited a

cockroach

who had extensive

experience as supervisor

and who was famous for

writing excellent reports.Theá laø sö töû thueâ 1 con giaùn coù nhieàu

kinh nghieäm veà giaùm saùt, vaø noåi tieáng veà kyõ naêng

The cockroach’s first

decision was to set up a

clocking in attendance

system.Sau khi ñöôïc thueâ, quyeát ñònh ñaàu

tieân cuûa con giaùn laø gaén 1 caùi ñoàng hoà treo töôøng ñeå

theo doõi vieäc ñi laøm ñuùng giôø.

He also needed a

secretary to help him

write and type his

reports and …Con giaùn cuõng caàn 1 thö kyù ñeå thay noù vieát ghi

chuù hay laøm baùo caùo, vaø theá laø...

... he recruited a spider,

who managed the

archives and monitored

all phone calls.... noù thueâ 1 con nheän, chæ ñeå

quaûn lyù baùo caùo vaø nhaän caùc

cuoäc goïi.

The lion was delighted with

the cockroach's reports

and asked him to produce

graphs to describe

production rates and to

analyse trends, so that he

could use them for

presentations at Board‘s

meetings.Con sö töû raát haøi loøng

veà nhöõng baùo caùo cuûa con giaùn, vaø yeâu

caàn con giaùn laøm theâm nhöõng bieåu ñoà theo

doõi saûn löôïng vaø phaân tích xu höôùng thò tröôøng,

ñeå noù coù theå trình baøy taïi cuoäc hoïp Ban

quaûn trò.

So the cockroach had to buy a new computer

and a laser printer and ...

Theá laø con giaùn mua 1 caùi maùy vi tính môùi, cuøng vôùi 1 maùy in lazer,

vaø...

... recruited a fly to

manage the IT

department.... noù thueâ 1 con ruoài ñeå laøm

quaûn lyù boä phaän IT.

The ant, who had once been so productive and

relaxed, hated this new plethora of paperwork

and meetings which used up most of her time…!

Nhaéc tôùi con kieán, luùc tröôùc laøm vieäc raát chaêm vaø thoaûi maùi, giôø

The lion came to the

conclusion that it was

high time to nominate a

person in charge of the

department where the

ant worked. OÂng chuû sö töû ñi ñeán keát luaän laø caàn phaûi cöû moät

ngöôøi laøm quaûn lyù nguyeân caû boä

phaän maø con kieán ñang laøm vieäc.

The position was given to the

cicada, whose first decision

was to buy a carpet and an

ergonomic chair for his office.

Chöùc vuï oâng chuû nhoû naøy ñöôïc giao cho 1 con ve saàu, vaø quyeát ñònh ñaàu tieân cuûa con ve laø

mua ngay 1 caùi thaûm ñeïp vaø moät caùi gheá thaät eâm cho phoøng laøm vieäc cuûa noù.

The new person in charge, the

cicada, also needed a computer

and a personal assistant, who he

brought from his previous

department, to help him prepare a

Work and Budget Control Strategic

Optimisation Plan …Vaø ‘oâng chuû’ ve saàu naøy cuõng caàn theâm 1 maùy vi tính vaø moät thö kyù rieâng, ñoù laø thö kyù cuõ cuûa noù, ngöôøi ñaõ giuùp cho noù chuaån bò Keá Hoaïch Toái Öu Hoaù Chieán Löôïc Kieåm Soaùt

Coâng vieäc & Ngaân quyõ...

The Department where the ant

works is now a sad place,

where nobody laughs anymore

and everybody has become

upset...

Vaên phoøng con kieán laøm vieäc trôû thaønh

moät nôi buoàn baõ, chaúng coøn ai cöôøi ñuøa vaø moïi ngöôøi trôû neân

lo laéng khoù chòu...

It was at that time that

the cicada convinced the

boss , the lion, of the

absolute necessity to

start a climatic study of

the environment . Theá laø con ve saàu thuyeát phuïc oâng

chuû lôùn, laø con sö töû, veà söï caàn thieát phaûi laøm

Having reviewed the

charges for running the

ant’s department , the

lion found out that the

production was much

less than before.

Sau khi xem laïi caùc baùo caùo taøi chính

trong vaên phoøng nôi con kieán laøm, con sö

töû phaùt hieän ra naêng suaát ñaõ thaáp hôn tröôùc ñaây raát

So he recruited the

owl , a prestigious

and renowned

consultant to carry

out an audit and

suggest solutions.Theá laø sö töû thueâ 1 con cuù,

ñoù laø 1 coá vaán noåi tieáng vaø coù uy tín,

ñeå tieán haønh ñieàu tra vaø

thieát

The owl spent three

months in the

department and

came up with an

enormous report , in

several volumes,

that concluded :

“ “ The department is The department is

overstaffed ...”overstaffed ...”

Con cuù boû ra 3 thaùng ñeå nghieân cöùu veà vaên phoøng vaø vieát moät baùo caùo khoång loà, leân ñeán vaøi quyeån, vaø ñi ñeán keát luaän: “Vaên phoøng naøy coù quaù nhieàu nhaân

Guess who the lion fires first?

Ñoaùn xem oâng chuû sö töû sa thaûi ai ñaàu tieân?

The ant , of course, because he

“showed lack of motivation and had a

negative attitude".

Dó nhieân seõ laø con kieán, vì noù “thieáu ñoäng cô laøm vieäc vaø coù thaùi ñoä bi quan trong coâng vieäc”.
