DuPont benchmarked every creativity process on the market for its Creativity Center. Dr. David Tanner, former technical director of DuPont, says, "the de Bono techniques were the most useful". An employee's suggestion - the re-engineering of a manufacturing process for Kevlar - eliminated nine steps in the manufacturing process as a result of using de Bono techniques and saved DuPont $30 million dollars!

"I have been meaning to write to Barbara Stennes to thank her for the wonderful introduction to Edward de Bono’s tools and techniques. Ever since I returned from the Course in Creativity, I have been practicing the techniques in every aspect of my life and work. The results have been amazing. I’ve used it for conflict resolution, meeting facilitation to design a new product and to evaluate new proposals and ideas. I’ve given my manager an overview of the training and I hope more people on my team can take advantage of the techniques."
