in 1984 Dr. Deming foresaw the current economic crisis and the cause. Take a look at this video and you will learn of the "5 Deadly Diseases" that are at the heart of the problem.

Dr. Deming said, "A Transformation must take place in American industry or it will continue on the decline until the style of American management changes...and they don't know what to do. 98% don't know there is a problem or there is anything they can do."

  • @grimnuclearwar My grandfather was actually taught by him! He proposed my papa to start his own quality control business! :D

  • In 30 years I have worked for over a dozen bosses.  NONE of them ever used the Deming method or even knew about it. And they were all horrible managers.

  • i thought mr deming was the main man, but now i hear him talking total bollox, no pay review performance. Unfortunatley in any company you will have hard workers and piss takers, goin by his logic they should be treated the same. dick head

  • Deming sucks. His 14 points have made life hell for us here at college. Wish he never existed. I am thinking of dictating my own set of 1400 points to ensure good management and hope to give this old guy a tough competition. These non-scientific theories are no damn stupid. How can one name them as 'Theories', when they come about naturally and obviously?

  • @projectmgrninja. Market wisdom means understanding how markets works. Your Guru has no understanding of market behavior.

  • @projectmgrninja Although most of the governments of Asia had seemingly sound fiscal policies, the International Monetary Fund , again bad management

  • @TavernacleRecords And most managers are clueless, incompetents. It's pure Peter Drucker, arguably the US' most accomplished business guru of the 20th century, who stated in one of his brilliant business tomes that the number 1 reason for business failure is not competition, lack of vision, or any of the other typical management excuses: it is managerial incompetence...

  • @odinheim It's more true in 2011 than it was 27 years ago.

  • @odinheim Japan's current financial crisis is not a management problem. The issues have more to do with their system of banking. Of course the earthquake/tsunami/Fukushima disaster have impacts that will be felt for years to come: how does something like a cataclysmic event translate to a 'lack of management'?

  • @AnonymousEconomist . You are as clueless as you are stupid. "Market wisdom" is a hoax and a fraud. There is no wisdom in the market - the so called "market" is like having a bipolar head-case for a business partner. If you are an economist, you must be unemployed...

  • Unfortunately managers must conform to market wisdom, and market wisdom is something Deming doesn't have. In today's world, he couldn't even score a Webinar.

  • Pure genius. I even love his mannerisms. He's a beautiful man.
