Please note:
We stopped this promotion a while back. People continued to pay our retail price for the toolkit, understanding it was a great value as is. Thank you for that and have fun out there!
We had sent out a Press Release on customers setting their own price on purchasing our facilitation toolkit.:
Taylors, SC – (5/10/12) Performance Management Company is supporting collaboration with its customers by offering them an opportunity to “name their own price” for the Square Wheels Facilitation Toolkit. This complete training package normally sells for $49.95 and contains:
- A Facilitation Guide with instructions for use
- A PowerPoint Presentation containing 64 slides, notes, quotes plus illustrations / cartoons
- A variety of ready-to-use handouts for generating involvement and engagement including:
- –a Worksheet for mind mapping ideas generated by the main Square Wheels concept
- –a Round Wheels Worksheet for identifying ideas and opportunities for improvement
- –a Key Learning Points Summary Handout of Square Wheels themes for implementation
- The “Teaching the Caterpillar to Fly” article by Scott Simmerman, focusing on managing and leading change for organizations and individuals
Based on the Square Wheels One illustration that is a proven, powerful tool for promoting a participative learning approach, it allows people to “step back from the wagon” and disclose their views about how things are really working, engage each other in a creative discovery process and use the diversity of ideas and perspective to generate thinking, innovation and communications. It’s a great facilitation tool for leadership development skills, employee engagement, team building and motivation.
By engaging people in generating ideas for changing how things really work is very positively disruptive:
Dr. Scott Simmerman, creator of the Square Wheels illustration series, believes that “Nobody ever washes a rental car” and that people become more engaged and motivated if they feel a sense of ownership in the journey forward. Therefore, Scott hopes that by your setting the price for this Toolkit, you’ll enjoy a keener sense of ownership/motivation for its use.
You’ll find the Square Wheels Facilitation Tools could be a valuable tool and I will inexpensively and directly work with you to develop a toolkit you can use in your consulting business or in a training program.

Here is the evolution of the images since 1993…

People basically liked this idea, thinking that we have really great and simple tools for engagement and performance improvement. The amazing thing is that so few people paid only a little — most people paid the full price and a couple paid even more for it! THAT was most surprising. Guess they had seen the tool and felt it was a really good value.
