Description:
Frontline teams are working harder than ever. Longer hours, faster pace, adjusting on the fly. And yet, efficiency still breaks down. The problem? It isn’t a lack of effort. It’s a lack of visibility.
Most leaders run operations on delayed data, creating a gap between the speed of work and the speed of decision-making. Without real-time visibility into what’s happening on the front line, leaders are forced into reactive mode, making it nearly impossible to stay ahead of shifting demand, labor volatility, and margin pressure.
There’s a different way to operate. And no organization knows that better than Amsted Industries.
By using real-time insights, the global manufacturer empowered leaders to align skills to demand, reduce burnout, and build resilience at scale. In this webinar, Jaronika Dancy, who leads HR operations at Amsted Industries, and Mike St. Clair, COO of Wheel at Amsted Rail, share how they shifted from working harder to operating smarter — and the lessons learned along the way. They discuss:
- Why more data often creates more noise — and what the right data looks like in context
- What it means to move from “chief problem solver” to “leader of leaders” on the front line
- When metrics fall short and how listening and real conversations reveal what data can’t
Hosted by HR Executive and moderated by Julie Develin, Senior Partner for Human Insights at UKG and a Top 100 HR Influencer, this webinar brings together perspectives from HR and operations to unpack what operating in real time looks like in practice.
