Day 1: From Red Square Puzzles to Blue Pen Companies - Discover and Address Hidden Barriers to Teamwork
Learn about the foundations of teamwork and the connecting power and potential this provides to all organizations. As Dr. Deming believed, working together is fundamental to both solving and preventing problems while providing the ability to improve how they operate continually. Using interactive activities, participants will learn how to discover opportunities for moving from the "Old Economics" of managing actions (parts, tasks, and milestones) to the "New Economics" of managing interactions.
Note: Day 1 is limited to 60 participants.
Location: SUU Great Hall
Day 2: Systems Thinking in an AI World
Join us for Deming's famous Red Bead Experiment, an introduction to how systems thinking is different from other management practices, and a panel of practitioners putting systems thinking to work in government now. Spend the last hour of the day in a structured round-robin with presenters, including Dr. Deming's grandson and Executive Director of The Deming Institute, Kevin Cahill, and long-time Deming practitioner Dennis Sergent.
Panelists include:
- Rob Dotson, City Manager, Enoch, Utah
- Ravi Roy, Professor of Public Administration, Southern Utah University
- Don Wood, IT Executive Director, Wasatch County & Commissioner, State of Utah’s Privacy Commission
- David Zook, County Executive, Cache County, Utah
Location: SUU Aviation Hangar
Additional details:
Both days will include lunch and beverages (please let us know on the registration form if you plan to attend one or both days.)
Free for students, faculty, and administrators, as well as Utah residents.
$1,000 for non-Utah residents (for one or both days).
