One thing is for sure about TWI - it is simple. And so are most things that are important in daily life. Managing money, family and community. Stick to the basics.
Some communities are using folding TWI into the offerings for those trying to cope with the everyday struggles in the economic recovery. Leadership failure is one of the root causes to the economic downturn and therefore should be refocused in our economic recovery. Clearly, the folks at Iowa State University extension understand this.

Job Instruction
“A new concept in the field of industrial training was definitely emerging on a national scale – a concept of training destined to influence the thinking of people in every industry."
Excerpt from, The ‘First Million’ brochure, where the TWI Service made history in receiving the first Industry Award decorating a government agency.
February, 1944
Job Relations
“’Leadership’” has been the subject of an extraordinary amount of dogmatically stated nonsense. Some, it is true, has been communicated by observers who have had no experience themselves in directing the activities of others; but much of it has come from men of ample experience, often of established reputations as leaders.”
The Nature of Leadership,
Chester Barnard, 1940
