After the 2010 Thomas and Uber Cup debacles, hopefully the BAM management will not do the same mistake as

1. The Malaysian Rowing Team

2. To prove that Malaysia Boleh, there will be an annual rowing competition against the Japanese Rowing Team. It was agreed that each team to be made up of 8 members.

3. After months of intensive training, the race began!

4. The Japanese won by 1 km!

5. The Malaysians were furious with the disappointing results. The management decided to win the race next year at ANY cost. So they established a team of analysts to observe the situation and recommend an appropriate solution.

6. After detailed analysis, the team observed that the Japanese had seven rowers and one captain.

7. The Malaysian team had SEVEN CAPTAINS and only ONE ROWER!

8. Facing such a critical scenario, the management showed an unexpected wisdom. They hired a consulting company to restructure the Malaysian Team.

9. After many months…

10. The consultants concluded that there were too many captains and too few rowers in the Malaysian team. A solution was proposed based on this BRILLIANT analysis!!! The structure of the team must change immediately.

12. 2 supervisors

13. 1 manager

14. 1 rowerBesides this, they also suggested to improve the rower’s working environment and to give him higher competencies.

15. Come next year, the Japanese won by 2 km!

16. The Malaysian team immediately removed the rower from the team based on his unsatisfactory performance.

17. A bonus award was paid to the management for the excellent motivation they had shown during the preparation phase.

18. The consulting company further prepared a new analysis, which showed that the strategy was good, the motivation satisfactory, but the tools had to be improved.

19. Currently, the Malaysian Team is designing a NEW BOAT!
