Our Beginning
In 1995, we set out to make a great difference for people and the teams they spend a large part of their life in. We knew the Deming philosophy of quality and his colleagues such as Brian Joiner, Peter Scholtes and Russell Ackoff. We knew the organizational defenses and philosophy to overcome them with trust and communications linked to purposeful actions described by Chris Argyris. We also were knowledgeable in the spread methods developed by Everett Rogers.
We had to first create a method designed to engage the greatness within everyone who wants to work with others to do great things together. We found a method for people and teams to put their best work into the hands of their customers, suppliers and teammates through the science of improvement, with very little in their way.

We see a better world for everyone because of the work done by people collaborating in teams.
