Change can be a blessing or a curse, depending on yourperspective. The message of
Who Moved My Cheese? is that allcan come to see it as a blessing, if they understand the nature ofcheese and the role it plays in their lives.
Who Moved MyCheese? is a parable that takes place in a maze. Four beings livein that maze: Sniff and Scurry are mice--nonanalytical andnonjudgmental, they just want cheese and are willing to do whatever ittakes to get it. Hem and Haw are "littlepeople," mouse-size humanswho have an entirely different relationship with cheese. It's not justsustenance to them; it's their self-image. Their lives and beliefsystems are built around the cheese they've found. Most of us readingthe story will see the cheese as something related to ourlivelihoods--our jobs, our career paths, the industries we workin--although it can stand for anything, from health torelationships. The point of the story is that we have to be alert tochanges in the cheese, and be prepared to go running off in search ofnew sources of cheese when the cheese we have runs out.
Dr.Johnson, coauthor ofThe One MinuteManager and many other books, presents this parable tobusiness, church groups, schools, military organizations--anyplacewhere you find people who may fear or resist change. And although moreanalytical and skeptical readers may find the tale a little toosimplistic, its beauty is that it sums up all natural history in just94 pages: Things change. They always have changed and always willchange. And while there's no single way to deal with change, theconsequence of pretending change won't happen is always the same: Thecheese runs out. --Lou Schuler
