THINK OR SINK

In Think Or Sink, John Cleese firmly believes in making team decisions. Unfortunately, his team consists of me, myself and I. Cleese plays an egotistical General Manager, who boldly declares: "I'm The one The board asked for a proposal, so I'm The one who's going to propose it. You can forget all this stuff about joint solutions". But instead of all The glory, Cleese winds up with all The blame, and he loses his job.

After reviewing his past performance, Cleese learns how to create competition between ideas, not people. He also knows that doubts must be voiced to avert later problems. More importantly, he learns that good alternatives are crucial in successful team decision making..
