Who moved my cheese?

The aim
To help people recognise, adapt and enjoy change whenever it happens.


About the programme
You can use this inspiring programme as a meeting opener or for wider training to enable everyone in your organisation to find a better way of succeeding in changing times. It is a simple parable that reveals profound truths about change.
This enlightening story introduces four characters who live in a 'maze' and look for 'cheese' to nourish them and make them happy. Two are mice and two are 'littlepeople'. The 'cheese' is a metaphor for what you want to have in life - whether it is a good job, a loving relationship, money, a possession, health, or spiritual peace of mind. And the 'maze' is where you look for what you want - the organisation you work in, or the family or community you live in. In this story, the characters are faced with unexpected change but deal with it successfully.

With it's non-threathening approach and simple-to-adopt techniques, this engaging programme, suitable for all levels of staff, gives people an enjoyable way to thrive in times of change. The simple cheese metaphor is easy to remember and incorporate into training, and can be in large groups to create a common language and small groups to deal with specific changes.
