I went to see Dr. Deming in 1985 in DC at one of his week long seminars. One of our Vice Presidents walked out as Deming railed against "exhortations for improved performance without providing the needed tools." It was sweet. Fortunately more senior managers disagreed with him and Deming's philosophies have become ingrained.
