To illustrate this, I like to tell a parable from Southeast Asia. It's about five blind men coming across an elephant for the first time and how each describes the creature from a different side: the man holding the tail says 'an elephant is like a rope'. The one touching the legs says 'it's like a tree'. Another one, holding the trunk, likens it to a snake, and so on. Each of their perspectives is correct in some way, but it is only by combining them that they can better understand the 'whole' of the elephant.</p><br> <a href="https://www.bizcommunity.com//Article/196/499/233483.html">Read more...</a> | <a href="https://www.bizcommunity.com//SendToFriend.aspx?l=196&c=499&ct=1&ci=233483">Send to a friend</a></p><div style="clear:left"></div>
