Manufacturing Leaders Number 1 Weakness Poor Communication

Mankato, MN -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/03/2015 -- All manufacturing leaders each have strengths and weaknesses. The greatest strength often rests in the understanding of how production works, product is engineered, and assembled. Communication is often the great weakness of many manufacturing leaders and it comes with a high a price as a defective product. Operations leaders at small- and mid-sized manufacturing companies have no shortage of stress. Much of the burden of bringing in jobs on-time and on-budget falls on C-level executives, which explains the thirst for visibility and hawkish attention to detail regarding everything on the shop floor.
