Presentation Title: Deming’s Red Bead Experiment
Presentation: What is The Red Bead Experiment? The Red Bead Experiment is an interactive teaching tool designed in 1982 by W. Edwards Deming. Using statistical theory, the experiment demonstrates how “willing workers” have less control over their performance than the actual systems they're working within.
Another important lesson from the Red Bead Experiment is the importance of understanding variation – the importance of drawing accurate conclusions from the data you have. So often we have people drawing faulty conclusions from data because they don’t understand variation. They make claims that are not supported by the data. But since so few understand how to analyze data those claims are accepted as evidence.
