Dr. W. Edwards Deming, a pioneer in quality management and continuous improvement, introduced the System of Profound Knowledge, which revolutionized manufacturing and management practices in the 20th century. This presentation revisits Deming’s influential work and examines its relevance from the past to the present and into the future. We explore how Deming’s principles of systems thinking, variation, knowledge theory, and psychology continue to shape modern methodologies, particularly DevOps. As we look toward 2024 and beyond, we will discuss how Deming’s ideas can be further integrated with emerging technologies, such as Generative AI, to drive innovation, foster collaboration, and achieve organizational excellence in an increasingly complex world.
