POWER UP, LEVEL UP: Empowering workers in making process improvements
ONE PART IS VITAL, BUT THE WHOLE THING IS CRUCIAL
Sarah welcomes Mark Alarik today, who will be talking about how to empower workers to make improvements on the production floor, which is good for a manufacturer struggling with the thought of giving your team the authority to make process improvement decisions. Join Sarah as she listens to Mark’s experiences and insights, in this latest episode of What The Duck?!
MOMENTS TO DUCK AROUND
MARK: IMPROVING ONE PART IS NOT ENOUGH
“The more I studied, the more I realized that you cannot improve one part and expect an improvement of the whole, and this is true of a business because most businesses really run in silos, not as a system.”
MARK: UNDERSTAND YOUR WORK HOLISTICALLY
“You have to understand your job holistically, and optimized operating procedures just don't tell you what to do, they tell you why. They help you understand the interactions that are going on, on the line. It's quite a training. It's quite a training, and it's improving their skillset and knowledge.”
