8th Annual Bryce Canyon Society Deming Forum (2026)

From Red Square Puzzles to Blue Pen Companies - Discover and Address Hidden Barriers to Teamwork

Location: Southern Utah University (Ballroom in the Sharwan Smith Student Center)

Aim: For attendees to understand and begin applying Dr. Deming's System of Profound Knowledge to lead and manage within their organizations

Audience: staff at all levels of organizations, small and large, including industry, government, education, healthcare, and non-profits

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.
