Business Lessons From Blue Man Group

When Chris Wink talks about the challenges facing his organization, he doesn’t start quoting from Who Moved My Cheese? He quotes from The White Stripes. He points to the song "Little Room," from the Detroit duo’s album White Blood Cells, the lyrics to which run in full: "Well, you’re in your little room, and you’re working on something good. But if it’s really good, you’re gonna need a bigger room. And when you’re in the bigger room, you might not know what to do. You might have to think of how you got started, sitting in your little room."
