A mechanic was removing the cylinder heads from the motor of a car when he spotted the famous heart surgeon in his shop, who was standing off to the side, waiting for the service manager to come to take a look at his car.
The mechanic shouted across the garage,”Hello Doctor! Please come over here for a minute.”
The famous surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic. The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked argumentatively, “So doctor, look at this. I also open hearts, take valves out, grind ‘em, put in new parts, and when I finish! This will work as a new one. So how come you get the big money, when you and me is doing basically the same work?”
The doctor leaned over and whispered to the mechanic .......
“Try to do it when the engine is running”

The United States were competing against Japan in a boat race and, to the Americans dismay, the Japanese team won by a mile. Determined to ensure that there would be no repetition of the national humiliation the following year, the Americans hired a firm of consultants to discover the reason for the defeat and to recommend action. The consultants found that whereas the Japanese crew had seven people rowing and one steering, the Americans had one rowing and seven steering. After a year of study and millions of dollars spent analyzing the problem, The firm of consultants cautiously concluded that on the US team too many people were steering and not enough were rowing.
So as race day approached the following year, the US team’s management structure was completely reorganized. The new structure was four steering managers, three area steering managers and a new performance review system for the person rowing the boat to provide work incentive. This time the Japanese team won by two miles. The US corporate management promptly laid off the rower for poor performance but gave the managers a bonus for discovering where the problem lay.
