About The Manufacturing Mix
Our Story: The Problem with Unused Potential
For over 20 years, I've worked in manufacturing, engineering, and consulting—immersed in the world of process improvement and organizational change. In every role, from the shop floor to the boardroom, I saw the same core problem: great ideas, meticulously planned strategies, and well-designed programs would often fail to produce lasting results.
The challenge wasn't in the initial plan; it was in its execution. New systems, procedures, and initiatives often failed to take root, becoming forgotten projects that didn't stick. I realized the true obstacle to operational excellence isn't a lack of knowledge, but a lack of effective change management. This experience is the foundation of The Manufacturing Mix. I started this company to solve that exact problem.
