I recognize your expertise in this area. Deming was certainly an extraordinary man (I studied Sampling under him 39 years ago). But he (like almost everyone else) did not recognize how culture influences behavior. The Japanese were the perfect targets for his collectivist ideas. They have the willingness to subordinate their personal interests to the welfare of the han. Most Americans, however, are hyper individualists who must be bribed by immediate rewards into cooperation and effort. Thus for many years the Japanese could await their turn and stick to the firm, while Americans have to get stock options and watch the stock price every day.
