Shamrock

Shamrock typically refers to a three-leafed plant, commonly associated with Ireland and St. Patrick’s Day. In a broader context, it can also symbolize a model of business strategy called "Shamrock Organization," which describes a company with three core components: a core of full-time employees, a flexible workforce of part-time or temporary workers, and external specialists or consultants. This structure aims to balance stability with adaptability, allowing organizations to respond efficiently to changing needs while maintaining a steady foundation. The term "shamrock" visually and conceptually highlights this three-part balance.
