  • Implemented best practice sharing
  • Improved training for struggling employees
Results:
  • 15% improvement in overall operations productivity
  • Zero employees fired for performance
  • $0 investment in capital improvements or automation
  • Clear guidance and processes for managers
  • Improved employee morale, best in network employee engagement survey results
  • New process scaled as best practice at all other North American sites
