When you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. Nevertheless, we often see other strategies for this situation:
- Whip harder.
- Change riders.
- Appoint a committee to study the dead horse.
- Hire a contractor to ride the dead horse.
- Arrange a visit to another site to see how they ride dead horses.
- Create a training session to increase our riding ability.
- Remind all concerned that "this is the way we have always ridden this horse."
- Harness several dead horses together for increased speed.
- Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position.
