Lean 2.0 with Melanie Gilbertson

Join host Daniel "Dan0" Oates and Melanie Gilbertson, Flintco's Director of Production Support, about the company's Lean journey. Melanie shares how she first got involved with Lean practices in 2009 and saw the benefits it brought to planning and scheduling. After joining Flintco in 2016, Melanie led the company's introduction to Lean with two pilot projects. Melanie explains Flintco's three formal Lean roles - Lean Champion, Coach, and Mentor. We hear how an internal steering committee comprised of coaches and mentors created a compensation program around the discretionary effort to drive Lean throughout the organization. Tune in to learn more about how Lean has helped transform Flintco's operations through collaborative planning, training, and continuous improvement.
