Given what Mr. Hubbard’s administrative breakthroughs represent in terms of providing the natural rules by which groups truly function, it was inevitable that his administrative discoveries would become much in demand in general industry and elsewhere. Initially, to meet that demand, Mr. Hubbard authored two books for the working public: How to Live Though an Executive, providing advanced principles for increased efficiency, and The Problems of Work, offering techniques for such job-related maladies as stress and exhaustion. Like all else that Mr. Hubbard provided in this field, these works represented not a particular interest in business, but a desire to make the fundamental truths of life known to others—and since work occupies so much of our lives, his efforts in the field were appropriate. As word of what is contained in the greater body of Mr. Hubbard’s administrative works continued to spread, the Hubbard Colleges of Administration were then founded.

     These institutions specifically utilize Mr. Hubbard’s discoveries for the expansion of a professional’s ability to tackle the challenges of administering and running a group, company or organization. To date, 17 such colleges have been founded in the United States, Australia, Great Britain, Switzerland, Germany, Greece, South Africa, Mexico, Venezuela, Ecuador and Russia. By the early 1990s, some 35,000 individual courses of administration had been delivered to business men and women from all disciplines: heavy industry, entertainment, communications, health care, and virtually all professional services.
