I love delivering the War on Waste over the years. We have recently migrated the program to the Internet and call it High ROI Problem Solving. There seemed to be some problem with people and the term "War on Waste." And we have changed the name of our Internet company to "The Consortium of Problem Solvers." We really have a consortium of Problem Solvers with our facilitators. They delve into their various projects with the same verve that Dr. Elbie did in the book. You can't help it. it is an intoxicating feeling to realize that you are moving people to understand their business from a new perspective. And this is really exciting.
I was asked recently to deliver a TEDx talk on the Black Lives Matters issue and my problem solving program. Actually I suggested the linkage because when you get into one of our problem solving gigs, color, race bigotry goes out the door. You only are focused on the problem and its solution. As one of my clients described me, I am like a Norden bomb sight focused on solving one of his problems. Actually, I liked that because that is what all my client employees do. They focus without Blame or racial differentiation. Just the solution, Man. Just the Solution.
