Deming was recruited to Japan by American authority in 1947 to prepare a census. Following that, he reconstructed the Japanese economy (Zeleny 2013). Due to Demings influence, Japanese people were taught the statistical and quality control technique. In his Red Bead Experiment Deming taught the importance of a good system and how to design, this theory is still relevant in Japanese corporation (Deming 2013).
