The Cat Herding Commercial - In 2000 the large System  Integrator company EDS made a very funny commercial which showed a group of Cowboys herding cats.
Cat Herders was launched at the Super Bowl 2000, promoting EDS (Electronic Data Systems) as a digital company. The concept came from a popular business phrase incorporated in the title of the 1997 book, “Managing people is like herding cats: Warren Bennis on Leadership“.

The herding cats commercial was only aired a few times in the US, and was only aired during the Superbowl series.
