CEO SEMINARS

^{Welcome
to the CEO Seminars section of the Clarity-NOW World
Center. Our CEO
seminars are available to all English-speaking CEOs, Chairmen, and
Presidents of both domestic and foreign corporations, as well as to any
of the top two or three other executives in their organizations who
these CEOs, Chairmen, and Presidents recommend to us, and who are
engaged in maintaining joint operational control of their business or
institutional organization. Special consideration will be made for
very large organizations that would like to expose a larger number of
the members of their Policy-making or Executive committees
simultaneously to TA.
All seminars run for a maximum of two and a half days, usually
starting on a Friday morning, and are limited to thirty
participants.}

^{Our CEO seminars focus on showing
executives how to use TA to}^{optimize corporate profits using the management model first introduced
to the world by "quality guru" W. Edwards Deming - both in Japan
immediately following World War II, and in America during the 1980s.
By using TA, we are able to make Deming's model much more accessible to
the average executive than Deming himself was usually able to make it.
In fact, we view this approach to be more valuable for many companies
than that of implementing a Six Sigma program, even though many
organizations benefit greatly from Six Sigma.}

^{In a broad sense, Deming's model was the main factor that enabled the
Japanese to emerge so successfully from the rubble of World War II, and
to generate so much profit from their foray into international trade,
that Japan eventually became America's largest international creditor.
It was this model, also, that enabled the Ford Motor Company, led by CEO
Don Petersen, to reinvent itself after teetering on the brink of
bankruptcy in the early 1980s, and to start making so much cash that by
1986 its earnings exceeded those of General Motors and Chrysler
combined. And it was this model, also, that seems to have played a
key role in the more recent success that entrepreneur Michael Dell has
achieved in building Dell Computer into a company that generates tens of
billions of dollars in annual sales, starting with a mere $1000 in
capital as a freshman in college.}

^{Replicated by just a very few highly successful executives, this
management model emphasizes Deming's process-oriented approach of
"continuous improvement," or Kaizen, as the Japanese call it - an
approach in which managers employ three different "ego states" in
dealing with subordinates, as opposed to the more simplistic
"goal-setting" approach in which managers typically employ just one "ego
state" (their Parent), often to their own detriment. In our view,
this process-oriented approach is the single most valuable management
model ever used anywhere. Properly implemented, it can generate
higher profits and produce a higher sustainable rate of corporate
growth, for longer periods of time, than virtually any alternative other
than pure monopoly, or near-monopoly, power.}

^{One difficulty many business executives encounter in trying to implement
this model is that, typically, they have developed far less skill in
using their Adult to deal with people than they have in using their
Adult to analyze production reports and to review financial data.
In fact, many executives have difficulty recognizing the difference
between their Adult and their Parent, as well as recognizing the
difference between their (programmed) Adapted Child and their
(spontaneous, trusting) Natural Child - a problem that can make it
extremely difficult, if not impossible, for them to focus on using their
Adult to establish a managerial context that supports and encourages
continuous improvement in the Deming tradition.}

^{Registration for our CEO Seminars is $10,000
per participant.}

^{Currently, we are not scheduling CEO
seminars nor soliciting corporate clients in anticipation of the
publication of Jut Meininger's new book CLARITY - so our Free Corporate
Tour is not fully activated.}
