Two guys hiking in the jungle encounter a hungry tiger. One puts on running shoes, with his friend questioning if the shoes will make him faster than the tiger. The man replies that he doesn't need to be faster than the tiger, just faster than his friend. This humorously illustrates the competitive "survival of the fittest" nature of corporate environments, where employees must outperform others to succeed, like gazelles needing to outrun the fastest cheetahs and cheetahs needing to outrun the slowest gazelles.
