Colin, Graham, Bob and the team are back, with more irreverent tales from the corporate world. Colin is simply a koala who wants to make a difference. Eager to add value, lean in and answer the question - Do we still need to buy lunch after we grab the low hanging fruit? Fail to Plan and You Plan to Fail Graham is unconvinced when Agile Coach Lynda suggests that as part of developing the customer requirements, his key stakeholder should be customers. Colin offers to help him source information from the Data Analysis Reporting Team, but will he be able to order a life jacket to arrive in time for him to effectively navigate the data lake? A Company is Only as Good as its People When the annual culture survey results are announced, Bob discovers he has scored badly in the area of trust, and insists the team be transparent and to own up to their anonymous comments. Meanwhile Colin is excited to have the chance to help tackle the biggest issue raised in the survey, but will a series of company-wide workshops be enough to identify why people said they spend too much time in meetings? Efficiency = Flexibility Resilience When the company decides to increase employee productivity and engagement by introducing flex-desking, Colin is excited to discover how setting up at a new desk, then packing everything away each day can increase his efficiency. But when it's discovered there's not enough desks to go round, Bob is forced to allow the team to work from home. Can Colin still achieve his efficiency gains without being able to change desks tomorrow? Join Colin the Koala in his second book of hilarious, relatable and unfortunately realistic business adventures.
