Why to Trust Teamwork and Delegation of Authority

There was a family of ghosts living in a place; they had made their homes. This was agricultural land belonging to a farmer. The farmer always used to plough it to grow new

crops. This action of the farmer always disturbed the ghost’s family as their houses used to destroy and they had to build their houses again. They had to do this practice every farming season and they became fed up with this routine. They had their chief ghost, to whom they always put their request to have some solution, but the chief ghost always delayed his action and never resolved the issue, which resulted in frustration amongst the ghost family.

One day when the chief ghost had gone anywhere, the ghost family decided to meet the farmer to have an agreement with him. They went to the farmer’s house in the shape of a delegation and met him to resolve the issue. One the ghost said to the farmer’ “We live in the land where you grow your crops in every season. We have our houses, occupies with our wives and kids. But the problem comes when you plough your land and destroy our houses”. The farmer replied, “He has to plough his land to cultivate new crops and I can’t stop to do so”. The ghost said, “We have a solution, if you don’t plough the field and don’t destroy our houses. Every season, we will provide you the same quantity of wheat which you get out of this field”. The farmer became happy as he wouldn’t do any effort and will get the same quantity of wheat. He accepted the deal and informed the ghost family about the quantity of wheat he gets from his land.

The group of ghosts returned to their home happily as now their homes will not be destroyed. When they reached home, the chief ghost was also at home. They told him about their deal with the farmer cheerfully but the chief ghost got annoyed with them for such an agreement with the farmer. He told them, “Stupid, why you agreed to give wheat to the farmer, rather you should threaten the farmer and he would have agreed on your terms. I will go tonight to the farmer’s house to frighten him and will get the land vacated without any condition.

It was unfortunate for the chief ghost that, at that night farmer has planned to catch the cat which used to spoil his milk on daily basis. The farmer had prepared a trap for the cat and placed it in the window. At night when the chief ghost tried to enter the farmer’s house from that window, he got entangled in the trap. The farmer put a sack on the ghost considering it the cat and started to beat him with a stick. After some time when the farmer opened the sack to release the cat, he saw the chief ghost there, badly beaten by him. He inquired the ghost, “Why you came to my house”? The chief ghost, who was already in critical condition said, “I had come to ask you, whether you will like to take wheat as per agreement has done today or we may give you ready flour for your ease”. The farmer said, “Yes give me flour in place of wheat”. The chief ghost returned home and told his family the whole story.

So to get better results, it is rightly said that “Trust Teamwork and Delegation of Authority”.
