Summary

When a community of animals living in a once peaceful, stable pond find themselves confronted with the awareness of an ever changing world, they become afraid, indecisive, panicky, and quarrelsome. They soon realize that only when they are willing to undertake reasonable risks, and consider changing their thinking, are their individual and organizational capabilities awakened. The animals soon learn that new thinking brings about new and positive results, making the process of change empowering and exciting. The Pond is an engaging, simple fable written to help generate positive ideas and actions toward maintaining functional organizations and successful transitions during times of change.
