. . Many people stay lives. They find it hard to master anything they do. This doesn't prevent them from dreaming the spotlight would fall on them occasionally. They discover that they might get the attention that they desire by underperforming. Several administration hours around the world are used chastising people for poor performance and attempting to cause them to raise their game. The 'wooden spoon' really serves as a focus for these people. It's a system that they'll adjust by doing their work poorly. In one organization they would give 'pig of the week' to the messiest and most disorganized staff in the team. The award was a little stuffed pig that people could devote a prominent place on their table. The consequence of the 'pig of the week' award was an informal competition started at the office. Rather than an embarrassment, 'pig of the week' became a cult award that everyone wished to win and so, rather than raise the degree of tidiness and firm in the office; it actually increased the chaos in which people worked.

A more good honor may be the 'Silver Spoon Award.' It's designed to encourage people who may not yet function as most useful role-models in-the organization and whose performance may actually be well below what is considered exemplary but who nonetheless deserve some type of recognition for the work they have put in, for their attitude to the job, for their ability to stimulate their colleagues or simply for their ability to make people laugh and enjoy being at work. You might say the 'Silver Spoon Award' is designed to get the 'Most Improved' and the 'Best Fun' groups. The award it self could be imaginary or virtual but, equally, a simple magic tsp mounted on a wood block that will be passed from person to person at the start of each award period adds some tangibility to winning. Underneath the new award process, Toby Miller's love of life can be regarded without denying others the accolade for best salesman, most innovative designer, most productive assembler.
