Overview

A spring in the step, a smile on the face and rowing together: an engaged frontline workforce is the the difference between winning and losing. Win the battle for engagement and watch your staff turnover decline overnight. In this session, we will explore ways to focus on these five areas of engagement:

  1. Connecting teams and individuals
  2. Ownership of performance
  3. Autonomous problem-solving
  4. Enabling cross=team collaboration
  5. Feeling competent and recognized

Plants focusing on connecting and engaging their frontline staff experience increased productivity and significantly reduced staff turnover. Giving your plant the tools it needs to eliminate communication silos and giving a voice to your frontline will drive results from all levels of the business. Your greatest assets, even in a world of automation, are your people.
