Making the leap to lean management in the warehouse or the supply chain requires the same kind of cultural shift and change in management behaviors as other operational areas. For a successful lean transformation, distribution management needs to take the lead in creating a strong sense of ownership at the operational level, and then provide people on the warehouse floor with the need for change, strategy, and support. Distribution center managers must shift their time from being problem-solvers towards becoming teachers, teaching those who are closest to the problems how to solve them. The distribution manager’s role, in turn, is to teach warehouse supervisors how to: a) use the operating system to identify problems for continuous improvement; b) employ standard problem-solving methods; c) facilitate a team through a continuous improvement project; and engage them in identifying problems. 🔗 Link in comments below to read more about lean in warehousing #Warehousing #Supplychain #Logistics #leanthinking #Distributionmanagement #Distributioncenter

Right person for the right job! - sounds simple? It's not always. We had positioned a competent engineer as a factory manager, years back. He had all reasons to succeed - good shopfloor experience, good with people, technically strong, had done union agreements. But in a completely new geography, with the language and culture unknown, he couldn't do well. Any number of conversations on inputs, support didn't work. We moved him to a completely different, in a new geography and setting. He did reasonably well there. We positioned a bright IITian as incharge of quality in a plant. It was a very exciting role and his predecessors with similar profiles had done very well in this role. The role was demanding in terms of complexity and interface with a diverse set of stakeholders. He miserably failed, to our shock and disbelief. We had conversations on concerns and support required, but situation hardly changed. We moved him into another role, in another plant, focused on a new technology project. He did pretty well. While, we deploy well oiled processes to identify and position talent for critical positions, we can get it wrong a few times. The system also considers growth and learning aspirations of individuals in positioning people.Thankfully, instead of labeling the resource as incompetent, we try to match the requirements with specific capabilities after such experiences. But these experiences dent the confidence of individuals. And despite such efforts in offering newer and different roles, few individuals may still not fit into these roles well, and fail to deliver.

Head of Operations II 20+ Years Manager Food Industry II Manufacturing II Quality II Lean Manufacturing II Food Industry & Food Service
When I embarked on my journey as a production manager, I had: 1. A bachelor's degree in Veterinary Medicine 2. Some basic knowledge about the production process 3. A preliminary understanding of supply chain management 4. Minimal leadership experience And that was the best part. Why? Because it gave me the room to learn, to grow, and to acquire the essential skills required to be a successful Production Manager. The absence of expertise was, paradoxically, a strength as it forced me to stay humble and constantly learn. But one thing I always had was my love and passion for production management. Here’s what I did: 1. I pursued a master's degree in Production Management. 2. I took up additional courses in leadership and team management. 3. I gained hands-on experience by working on different projects. 4. I improved my analytical skills by studying market trends and consumer behaviors. 5. I increased my understanding of supply chain management. One thing I have understood is: 1. The importance of effective communication. 2. The necessity of being adaptable in a rapidly changing environment. 3. The value of having a proactive approach towards problem-solving. That’s it. The path to becoming a successful Production Manager is not easy, but it's worth every struggle. So, what's your journey been like, and what are the skills that helped you succeed in your role? #ProductionManagement #Leadership #ContinuousLearning

During the past five months, I have actively engaged in a comprehensive job search, connecting with several professionals and gaining valuable insights into the process. My gap time has been well-utilized for self-improvement, particularly in areas such as Leadership Development, Project Management, and AI technology. As I strive to refresh my professional brand, I am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead. Here is a Littel bit about me: As a skilled supply chain leader and a Six-Sigma Green Belt, I have more than 20 years of experience in managing highly complex distribution centers, including multi-client 3PL and union facilities. I have successfully led and executed multiple projects that improved processes, reduced costs, and increased employee engagement. Most recently, as a Regional Director of Operations at NFI, a leading logistics and transportation company, I oversaw the operations of four distribution centers with a combined area of over 1.5 million square feet. I was responsible for account management of 10 national brand customers, P&L management, inventory control, labor planning, safety programs, and talent development of over 400 associates and leadership. I also coordinated with cross-functional teams and external partners to ensure optimal service delivery and customer satisfaction. Some of my key achievements include: Launched several new key accounts for national brand customers such as Barilla Foods, World Centric and Stanley. Implementing lean and six sigma methodologies that resulted in a 25% improvement in productivity, a 20% reduction in waste, and a 75% increase in quality and a 15% improvement to P&L margins. Developing and delivering training & attendance programs that enhanced the skills and competencies of over 200 associates, leading to a 10% decrease in turnover and a 95% increase in retention. Establishing and maintaining a safety-first culture that achieved a record-low injury rate of 0.5% and a 100% compliance rate with OSHA standards. Hoping to connect soon!
