Why most fruits are green in colour when young and become red or yellow when ripen.... Hide and be visible is the law nature has followed.......
In one of the meetings, a question was raised as why most fruits are green in colour when they are young and become very attractively coloured when they ripe to fruits. We can answer the question very easily with a statement/assertion that the pigmentory changes only contribute to the above phenomena. Scientifically it is true as well. If so, why the fruits were green in colour in the beginning and later they changes to different colours instead of being in different colours in the beginning itself?
Evolution has an answer to it. The fruits carry the seed (s) of next generation. The seed when formed will be young and it progressively undergoes growth and attains maturity. Until it attains complete maturity, it needs to be protected for the sake of the future generation. Hence the evolution has provided the best advantage of colour camouflage to many plants. The green fruits are generally indistinguishable from the green leaves when the fruits are young.
The colour change at the later period is needed to attract various pollinating animals. At this stage, the fruits move from an indistinguishable green colour to distinguishable colours viz., red, orange or golden yellow. Hide and or exhibit for advantage is the law of evolution.
What the corporate and its employees have to learn from the above natural law? Hide your performance until you reach the logical end and display when you have established it. Protect the projects and their long term interest and do not scarifies them for short gains. Before one reach the logical conclusion in his or her effort, sharing of any results will lead to confusion. One needs to be discrete and pragmatic. Sharing the project findings much before its conclusions can be very dangerous and counter productive.
Attract or notify to the world when you have a very purposeful result or an achievement. Learn to communicate the result and not the effort. While communicating, also use very unique, distinguishable and differentiating language like how a green mango turns to golden yellow or brick red when it become fruit and edible. Learn also the art of making it indistinguishable when the process is on.
If the evolution had not given the colour camouflage advantage to the fruits in the beginning, the seeds may to grow and the tree never would able to propagate its progenies in nature. Similarly, when the corporate employees share the findings in the beginning before its completion, the logical conclusion of the project may suffer or also it can get snatched or stolen.
Another important lesson the corporate employees must be aware of is that when they share the result, they should accept the fact that they may loose them for ever like how trees loose their fruits. Remember only what you have produced will remain with you and not the product.
