Ice breaker- management fun
 During a robbery in Guangzhou, China, the
bank robber shouted to everyone in the bank:
"Don't move. The money belongs to the State.
Your life belongs to you.“
 Everyone in the bank laid down quietly. This is
called "Mind Changing Concept”
 Changing the conventional way of thinking.
 When a lady lay on the table provocatively, the
robber shouted at her:
"Please be civilised! This is a robbery and not
a rape!"
 This is called "Being Professional”
 Focus only on what you are trained to do!
 When the bank robbers returned home, the younger
robber (MBA trained) told the older robber (who has
only completed Year 6 in primary school):
 "Big brother, let's count how much we got."
 The older robber rebutted and said:
 "You are very stupid. There is so much money it will
take us a long time to count. Tonight, the TV news will
tell us how much we robbed from the bank!"
 This is called "Experience”
 Nowadays, experience is more important than paper
qualifications!
 After the robbers had left, the bank manager
told the bank supervisor to call the police
quickly. But the supervisor said to him:
 "Wait! Let us take out $10 million from the
bank for ourselves and add it to the $70
million that we have previously embezzled
from the bank”.
 This is called "Swim with the tide”
 Converting an unfavorable situation to your
advantage!
 The supervisor says: "It will be good if there
is a robbery every month."
 This is called "Killing Boredom”
 Personal Happiness is more important than
your job”.
 The next day, the TV news reported that $100
million was taken from the bank. The robbers
counted and counted and counted, but they
could only count $20 million.
 The robbers were very angry and complained:
 "We risked our lives and only took $20 million.
The bank manager took $80 million with a snap of
his fingers. It looks like it is better to be educated
than to be a thief!"
 This is called "Knowledge is
worth as much as gold!"
