Achieving Simplicity - a new course

There is no natural progress towards simplicity. Things tend to get more and more complex with the passage of time. Simplification processes can save time and money. M.D.C. estimated that they saved 20 million dollars in the first year of using parallel thinking. Simplification is a very important process, both to commercial business and equally to the public sector. Every organization should have a 'Simplicity Officer' whose business it is to lead teams and other efforts to simplify on-going processes. To help in this, I have designed a new course for Achieving Simplicity. The first session for training trainers in simplicity will be held between 21st-23rd September 2005 at Des Moins, U.S.A.
