As a long-time "Rummler-ite" (since 1979) I wanted to point out that although Alan Brache and Geary did have a business together - the methodology presented in their book was Geary's methodology from way back into the 1960's (at U. of Michigan) that has continuously evolved - I saw it first hand in 1981-2 at Motorola Training & Education Center (the forerunner of Motorola University), including handrawn swimlane charts continuously updated by Edie, his secretary back in Union NJ. The late Claude (Butch) Lineberry accused Rummler of inventing the 3 point font - for trying to squeeze so much onto a page, map, diagram.
