The famous Experiment on Red Beads was carried out innumerable times in UK Deming Seminars and in Dr Deming's four-day seminars. If you've seen it, you will know what a valuable method it is for teaching some basic understanding of variation and how it clarifies why many common management practices are ill-founded. It is an invaluable tool for education and training in your company.

Dr Deming . Prior to running the Experiment at every one of his celebrated four-day seminars, Dr Deming ran a version of the procedure way back in his early days in Japan. As interest in the Deming philosophy of management grows, an increasing number of people see the need to teach and demonstrate the Red Beads Experiment. However, its very value lies in the fact that there is much more to the experiment than initially meets the eye. We include a helpful booklet giving the history and clear instructions both on running the experiment and drawing lessons from it. The Red Beads Experiment Kit is exactly as Dr Deming's
