Attracting And Retaining The Frontline - Episode #125 - Justin Eubanks

This week we have Justin Eubanks, Learning & Development Manager at Great Day Improvements on the Frontline Innovators podcast with host Justin Lake.

Justin is a developmental strategist with extensive experience using LEAN methodologies to engage, attract, and retain the frontline workforce in a variety of ways at Great Day Improvements. 

  Quote: "I asked them how, how do you measure culture and how do you measure learning? You know and the answer I got was, it takes years to collect that data and you can't engage in something like this and expect six months from now everyone to be highly engaged, highly motivated, and want to stay here. 

That's not how that works. What we have noticed is that the engagement has gone up and the more people that know about it, then the more people want to talk about it, engage, and ask questions."  

Key Takeaways: ➖ Aligning change management throughout the company is key

➖ Let the frontline know that change is not a threat - it is a motivational factor for you to excel

➖ Creating change agents on the frontline is beneficial to increase engagement and adoption

➖ You need to have a people-first mentality and culture

➖ You have to have continuous learning for manufacturing environments to succeed
