It's Called Teamwork!

My wife loves horses. So, when we visit SeaWorld, we pretty much have to check in on the Anheuser-Busch Clydesdales. I have to admit that the raw power, grace and beauty of these amazing animals is undeniable.

But, where my wife appreciates the awesome sight of the fully dressed and hitched Budweiser wagon barrelling down the street, what I see is an incredible metaphor for teamwork.

Each animal knows his exact place in line, each shares the weight of the wagon load, and all pull towards a common goal following the lead of an experienced driver. There is mutual trust, and a shared vision that working together generates benefits for everyone.

Once this dynamic compilation of man and animal is set in motion, everything else simply falls into place.

So much for the "teamwork" metaphor.

Now, if we could just book an act like this in the Elburn Days parade. That would really be something!

Oh, and could someone stop playing that Budweiser theme music in my head.
