Productivity Team visits, on the use and dissemination of the various U.S. Technical Assistance aids, and on seminars and training programs. Some countries, like Belgium and Denmark, organized inclusive across-the-board programs aimed at all sectors, to cover management, engineering, marketing, material handling, packaging and other areas important in productivity restructuring. Germany followed the same course channeling its Productivity restructuring activities through its long established RKW organization for the rationalization of industry. The German program was later enlarged to operate through ten District groups. 26. The larger European nations had substantial Productivity program staffs and complex organizations of sector, regional, and local Productivity groups. The U.K. was alone in dispersing its operations (with the exception of the numerous Productivity Teams) through the delegation of projects and funds among a wide range of private and public research, educational, and engineering institutes. It relied on its strong industry associations and labor unions to carry the burden of inter-plant exchanges and training. France was unique in the scale, originality of organization and comprehensive range of centralized, sector, and regional programs. France evidenced the largest commitment of a program to reach into every corner of the nation. 15 HAMPLE TRUMAND NARA EIBRARY
