Summit for Problem-Solvers

In 1994, we started the TapRooT® Summit as a three-day meeting of the best TapRooT® Users. The Summit has grown into an international event with world-renowned speakers and multiple tracks designed to share performance improvement best practices across industries and professions.

Why is the Summit so valuable?

First, we know the issues you have and need to improve. How? We teach root cause analysis to the world’s leading companies, making us premier “knowledge brokers.” We use this knowledge to design the Summit to address your biggest challenges.

Second, we make networking fun. The Summit is the BEST networking/benchmarking event. Meet people from industry-leading companies, performance-improvement experts, and our knowledgeable TapRooT® Instructors from around the world.

Third, TapRooT® Users share their Success Stories as part of the Summit. Look at the Summit Schedule and see the many sessions that address issues that you face. Attend the Summit to learn new best practices to improve performance at your company.
