The guests share the "golden nugget" of their success: recognizing that people are the ultimate competitive advantage. They detail how they secured executive sponsorship from the CEO and overcame challenges like language and cultural barriers across 30 sites and 17 countries by creating a common, competency-based roadmap. Their strategy focused on building a strong foundation and empowering their team with training before jumping to advanced technologies. This discussion offers invaluable lessons on how to lead a multi-regional reliability program and demonstrates that the biggest factor in long-term success is a strategic, unwavering focus on the people who make it happen.
