This is like work in a way, how they are filling that thing with beads is messed up, and I am sure the staff could come up with better ideas, if they were allowed to talk.
Takeaways: Workers need to know the mission of the organization, the expected quality level, and correct work procedures. Their performance should also be measured, as should all variable parts of the work process itself. Where organizations go wrong is in failing to measure and continuously improve their work processes. They must invest in PI/QI and, in this example, perhaps bring in some industrial engineering consultants with subject matter expertise. Blame, pressure, and unrealistic expectations can't be heaped upon workers who are limited by a suboptimal system.
I don't want to be rude, but it seems you misunderstood the point. All this was to show that it does not matter how you train your workers, how they perform their activities, how motivated they are, if the process itself is flawed. There is a certain ammount of blue and red beads, so the probability will always bring the average to unsatisfactory levels and other variables can't change that. I'am not saying that what you wrote is wrong, but the experiments aim is to show the opposite of what you got from it.
Great work! I Was just reading "Controlling Variation in Health Care: A Consultation from Walter Shewhart " Author: Donald M. Berwick . I will be using Dr. Berwick's excellent paper in part of my next presentation.
I would like to use this video in some training material I am putting together, If I include all of the credits as listed in the description is that acceptable? The training is not being sold or marketed.
That is the point. Deming argued that it is management’s responsibility to provide their workers with the right tools and right processes to do the job well. Too many of them instead simply blame the workers. He said it was futile to just exhort the workers to do better with things that are not within their control.
Well done! As usual, Dr. Berwick makes an awesome presentation!
This is the best red bead video I have found on you tube. Thanks.

Wrong tools for the job, what's the point?
