About this book
Laurie Harbour wants you to think differently about manufacturing.
Laurie's career reflects her role as one of the most influential women working in manufacturing. As the president and CEO of Harbour Results Inc., Laurie leads a team of analysts and manufacturing consultants to help small- to medium-sized manufacturers develop short- and long-term strategies, improve their operations, reduce risks, and optimize business.
This expertise has made her a trusted adviser to the North American manufacturing industry. It has also equipped her with unique insight into the trends that will shape manufacturing in the next decade, trends that today's leaders must prepare to meet and master.
Laurie's message is clear: "Manufacturing is at a major tipping point and we are facing a huge generational shift in how people work and their expectations. Things are changing in manufacturing, and leaders need different priorities."
In this book, Laurie shares clear and targeted strategies that will equip the next generation of manufacturing leadership to steer their companies to new levels of success. This is a playbook rich in actionable content leaders at all levels can use to generate operational excellence, develop a more robust labor strategy, leverage automation and data, and create future companies today.
Laurie dispels many of the myths about manufacturing, sharing her knowledge and speaking honestly to the industry's potential and its challenges. This is a practical and deeply engaging book, one that will encourage the next generation of leaders to think differently about manufacturing and provide steps and actions those leaders can use to impact manufacturing's future.
