It’s true for the “dogs” that live outside of us as well.

And when it’s the mean dog that wins, it’s hard not to lose morale and productivity.

Pass this story along to your colleagures. Talk about it. Post on the walls. Post on your computer (see instructions below). Post it everywhere as a reminder that the dog you feed the most will win.
