Fish! is about boosting morale and motiavting employees. It is a powerful parable that will help you love the work you do. "Catch the Energy and Release the Potential" truly captures the essence of Fish! philosophy.
This document introduces the FISH! philosophy, which aims to create a more positive work environment through playfulness, making others' days, being present, and choosing a positive attitude. It discusses the four cornerstones and concepts of FISH!, provides FISH! resources, and concludes with a pledge to support the FISH! philosophy.
Fish Philosophy
It's all about the four practices which we can perform in our daily lives to achieve success and to move towards humanity.
Choose your attitude.
Play.
Make their day.
Be there.
It's a book written by Stephen Lundin, Harry Paul and John Christensen.
The lessons imparted in Fish are very simple and provocatively empowering. The authors assert that employees in the workplace have the power to change their own attitudes about their work, creating a positive environment that will not only be more productive but happier in their lives.
Clearly, these are not novel ideas, but what gives them power is that Fish! uses as an example of this management technique the Pike Place fish market in Seattle, which is known for its lively fishmongers tossing fish to and fro. The idea is that if these workers, who have very difficult jobs that are not particularly lucrative, can maintain an amazingly motivated attitude about their work, then so can anyone.
