Andersen Consulting

Deregulation of the chicken's side of the road was threatening its dominant market position. The chicken was faced with significant challenges to create and develop the competencies required for the newly competitive market. Andersen Consulting, in a partnering relationship with the client, helped the chicken by rethinking its physical distribution strategy and implementation processes.
Using the Poultry Integration Model (PIM), Andersen helped the chicken use its skills, methodologies, knowledge capital and experiences to align the chicken's people, processes and technology in support of its overall strategy within a Program Management framework. Andersen Consulting convened a diverse cross-spectrum of road analysts and best chickens along with Andersen consultants with deep skills in the transportation industry to engage in a two-day itinerary of meetings in order to leverage their personal knowledge capital, both tacit and explicit, and to enable them to synergize with each other in order to achieve the implicit goals of delivering and successfully architecting and implementing an enterprise-wide value framework across the continuum of poultry cross-median processes.
The meeting was held in a park-like setting enabling and creating an impactful environment which was strategically based, industry-focused, and built upon a consistent, clear, and unified market message and aligned with the chicken's mission, vision, and core values. This was conducive towards the creation of a total business integration solution. Andersen Consulting helped the chicken change to become more successful.

Stephen Jay Gould:

It is possible that there is a sociobiological explanation for it, but we have been deluged in recent years with sociobiological stories despite the fact that we have little direct evidence about the genetics of behavior, and we do not know how to obtain it for the specific behaviors that figure most prominently in sociobiological speculation.

When the committee meeting minutes are released in six months, you'll see why we had to raise interest rates, thus forcing Prairie National Bank to foreclose on the chicken coop.

It was running to catch the Edinburgh train at Victoria Station at 3:15, my dear Watson. Observe the patina of dust on the dropped feathers, bespeaking long hours in a library, surely reading about Scotland. Remark the Baker Street boys' report that it was humming "Bonnie Lassie" while waiting to cross. Note the ticket stub marked Edinburgh. Of course, we both know the only train to Edinburgh leaves at 3:15 from Victoria...

Because the crossing guard was asleep on the job. We need a new program to make our interstates safer for people and poultry alike. H.R. I-80, introduced in the Congress this morning, takes the first needed step in that direction.

Picture if you will...A chicken so desperate to get to the other side that it ventured out of the bounds of safety and into...the Passing Zone.

Oliver Stone:

The question is not "Why did the chicken cross the road?" but is rather "Who was crossing the road at the same time whom we overlooked in our haste to observe the chicken crossing?"
