Title: "The Idea Rat"

Summary:

This 'Dilbert' comic strip, originally published in 1994, features a humorous scene where an intern suggests reorganizing the company's core processes to become a world-class organization. The idea is met with skepticism by the other employees, who are more interested in their own work than in implementing change. The comic strip pokes fun at the challenges of implementing new ideas in a bureaucratic organization and the tendency for employees to resist change.
