Topic:          Continuous Process Improvement

Presenter:      Pam Kinney and Wayne Records

     Pam Kinney and Wayne Records of DEC's Customer Services division
     in Atlanta, Georgia will be presenting a review of the novel
     perspective DEC takes toward continuous process improvement.  
     Their "Healing Forest" program is intriguing for its use of metaphor
     (forest, medicine wheel, organizational seasons) as well as its use
     of visioning and empowerment as the keys to provoking change.

     If you hunger for a change process that isn't run by statisticians
     and described with Pareto charts, come join us for a refreshingly 
     open and human perspective on CPI.
