Fish! For Life

By: Stephen C. Lundin

FISH is a management theory, a philosophy to get the best performance out of everyone at the workplace. This system was evolved by John Christensen, a filmmaker and a businessman, based upon what he saw at a small fish market in Seattle.

This idea has been adapted to show how it could benefit people in their personal life as well. Fish! For Life outlines how the same principles that form the foundation for a good environment in the workplace could also be applied to the home.

The FISH philosop...hy is based on four basic principles - Fun/Play, Make Their Day, Be There, and Choose Your Attitude. For the workplace, these translated into making the work they do enjoyable and fun, making others, especially customers feel special, being supportive to coworkers, and starting the workday with the right attitude.

These can be applied to personal life too, says Fish! For Life. The authors use the premise of a young family, Mary Jane, her husband and their two children, to demonstrate how it can be effective at home.

The family scenario is familiar as it involves growing children, working parents, tension at school, and financial strain. Then, the authors show how by viewing work as fun, and by being supportive of each other, and by staying positive and cheerful, most of the stress of family life can be mitigated.
