For May we chose W. Edwards Deming for his contributions in the field of statistics and quality control. You can read more about his life, how he helped the economic miracle to happen in Japan after the Second World War and what led to the development of the Total Quality Management method.   We also have a new interesting case study about Cygnet Health Care, one of the biggest private healthcare providers in the UK who chose Life QI as their platform to improve quality and connect their teams in 150 different locations.    Also our webinar calendar is updated now which contains our live sessions for June. Whether you're new to Life QI or just want to deepen your knowledge and master your Life QI skills, consult our calendar and choose the most suitable times.       | [![Cygnet](https://blog.lifeqisystem.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Cygnet-1.png?width=300&name=Cygnet-1.png)](https://blog.lifeqisystem.com/casestudycygnet)   | ## Cygnet Health Care's priority to drive improvement forward Cygnet Health care implemented Life QI as a consistent framework and centralised repository for their QI work.

Edwards Deming Edwards William Deming (1900-1993) is considered by many to be the founder of the quality movement and a real reference in the field of statistics. Many in Japan also consider him to be one of the inspirations of the Japanese economic miracle, which occurred from 1950 to 1960.
