Why do I write? Several years ago I was involved in an industrial accident which significantly restricted my physical abilities. While recuperating, one of my sons encouraged me to write for our grandchildren, using the computer. That really enhanced my pleasures in writing and most of my blogs to date spill over from that era.

During my 30 some years in leadership roles in manufacturing, I developed a philosophy that worked well for me: “Listen to the people then lead them to feel ownership in final production decisions.”

When you’ve helped people like coming to work, people problems have practically been eliminated.
