This Focused Performance Weblog started life as a "business management blog" containing links and commentary related primarily to organizational effectiveness with a "Theory of Constraints" perspective, but is in the process of evolving towards primary content on interactive and mobile marketing. Think of it as about Focusing marketing messages for enhanced Performance. If you are on an archive page, current postings are found here.

On the Calendar - New Jersey -- On Thursday, April 15, I'll be doing a track presentation at the 2004 North Jersey ASQ Spring Quality Conference. The topic is "Using the Theory of Constraints to Maximize Six Sigma Effectiveness." Starting with a quick "compare and contrast" intro of the two management concepts as means to achieve organizational improvement, the presentation will move on to the complementary nature of combining them. This overview of what TOC can bring to the Six Sigma party will touch on constraint management as the logical source of project selection for Six Sigma attention, a view of root cause analysis for complex processes and systems, and multi-project management to maximize the improvement throughput of limited Six Sigma Black Belt resources. If you can't come to the Garden State for the conference, check out the links. If you do go to the conference, stop by and see if I can fit all this in an hour -- and be sure to say hello.
