Her employment at the beginning of March marks the next level in REMCON's commitment to employees as they build on the successes from their Lean Manufacturing journey.
Connors had the same reaction Tom Peters expressed in this video after reading the Dream Manager by Matthew Kelly.
Caring about the whole person including their emotional commitment to the company and their dreams for the future was the easy part to embrace.
The revolutionary part of the book comes from the belief that the function of human resources should be to help employees advance their career, even if that means helping them find their next job elsewhere.
According to Connors, his experience showed that the company grows when the employees are growing with it. When their growth stops, company growth stops too.
REMCON's five-year growth plan required expanded focus on growing people as well as the product line in order to stay on track.
The management team believes this move will accelerate their progress.
