At the conclusion of this year's PDCA Advanced Shop Talk(AST) event in Portland OR, a regional sales rep for Masterchem Industries gave a stirring testimonial for the 2 days of conversation, inspiration and deliberation he experienced at the event.  In closing, his voice broke and he struggled to maintain his composure, while noting that our industry is not known for open communication and it was a revelation to discover inquistive and open-minded residential painting contractors.
 
There is, I suppose, a 'go it alone' cowboy mentality amongst many of our peers, a fear that conversation with any other painting contractor is akin to talking to the enemy.  Within the PDCA community there exists instead a generosity that is best illustrated by the referral of business from one member to another. We've been on the receiving end of that largesse, and have generated business for others in return.
