Edwards Deming, changed nations. An emperor awarded him a medal. If you don't know either, listen to the first few minutes when I describe him. Deming has become one of my top role models.</p><p>He transformed nations in a few years---the time scale that climate scientists say we have, not that climate is our only problem. He shows what one person can do---the opposite of what everyone who doesn't act justifies their inaction with: \"What one person does doesn't matter.\"</p><p>W. Edwards Deming saw and acted on systems, what many people talk about but not many get. This episode will illuminate them and, I hope, give hope and direction for what we can do.</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Kevin's <a href=\"https://duckduckgo.com/l/?kh=-1&amp;uddg=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ted.com%2Ftalks%2Fkevin_cahill_teamwork_reimagined\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">TEDx talk</a></li><li><a href=\"https://deming.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Deming Institute</a></li></ul>","author_name":"Joshua Spodek: Author, Speaker, Professor"}
