Culture Drives Efficiency and Quality at Wire Harness Manufacturer
Virginia-based contract manufacturer uses employee input and skill development to build better processes.
Over the past decade, Parker Garrett has visited hundreds of companies. During the course of those visits, he’s observed his share of unhappy workplaces. Conversations reveal frustrations with bureaucracy, poorly designed processes and “odd” decision-making not in the best interest of either the company or its employees. Garrett hears the dejection in workers’ voices and sees it in their eyes.
“You can just see that it’s stripping away their motivation,” Garrett says. “They don’t have a sense of fulfillment in their job, and they don’t want to be there.”
