Purchase A License To Use This Image Buy A Print Or Product Featuring This ImageThe elephant in the room refers to a large and vexing problem that is being ignored. It is an apt expression for businesses as well. In this funny picture of an elephant in the room, the aforementioned pachyderm sits on a struggling businessman in the front lobby as a receptionist casually goes through the daily mail ignoring all the fuss. This is not your typical elephant in the room picture, but rather a concept stock photo that takes the metaphor to a new place. The elephant isn't just in the room...he is sitting on the businessman!
There are all kinds of problems that all of us ignore all too often and in doing so we are all ignoring the elephant in the room...or perhaps I should say the elephants (plural) in the room! In business that can refer to everything from a non-existent market to cash flow problems to accounting issues. In any case, there is no shortage of businesses that can use this funny elephant picture to advertise their products and services.
This elephant in the office picture was carefully crafted to work as a vertical, horizontal or square format with room for type and headlines. The elephant is sitting on the back of a businessman who wears a pained expression as he struggles to get from under the great beast. They are in the lobby in front of the receptionists counter (she is standing behind the counter going through the mail). The lobby is a clean modern room with a tile floor and interesting architectural details. This is a picture of adversity, a picture of challenge, and a picture of ideas.
