Who Moved My Cheese?

The general take

Dhar Mann thinks Who Moved My Cheese? is a great book, describing it as a story about mice finding cheese in a familiar spot until the cheese gets moved somewhere new. He seems to appreciate it as a useful parable about adaptation, though the podcast excerpt doesn't reveal much depth beyond his initial endorsement.

About

THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER! A timeless business classic, Who Moved My Cheese? uses a simple parable to reveal profound truths about dealing with change so that you can enjoy less stress and more success in your work and in your life. It would be all so easy if you had a map to the Maze. If the same old routines worked. If they'd just stop moving "The Cheese." But things keep changing... Most people are fearful of change, both personal and professional, because they don't have any control over how or when it happens to them. Since change happens either to the individual or by the individual, Dr. Spencer Johnson, the coauthor of the multimillion bestseller The One Minute Manager, uses a deceptively simple story to show that when it comes to living in a rapidly changing world, what matters most is your attitude.

  “There's this great book called Who Moved My Cheese? Yeah, yeah, great book. Yeah. And it's basically about mice trying to go to the same place that they've always found cheese. And then as an experiment, that cheese gets moved to a new location.”
