Time for Inspiration
To inspire the next generation to consider a job in manufacturing, we need to know what inspires them.
Our future workforce is keenly interested in and connected to a company’s vision and mission. For us, that means we must articulate how we connect the imaginations of people with the intelligence of machines to expand what is humanly possible, making the world more intelligent, more connected and more productive.
How well can you articulate what you do in terms that matter to the talent you are trying to attract?
When we talk to people now about a career in manufacturing, we lead with our purpose. People – customers, current and future employees, shareowners – want and need to know not only what we do, but how and why.
Our value proposition is inviting innovators to join a company with the resources, technologies, industry expertise and market presence to drive technology collaboration across the organization, align smart factory technologies and best-in-class platforms, and create unmatched integrated information solutions.
The next industrial evolution is here, and it’s a new test of intelligence for humans and machines. Breakthroughs are hard-won and success requires sifting through overwhelming data for insights, clarity and confidence.
No change of this magnitude is possible without people who are ready to embark on the journey and embrace the change. And that change requires cultural and structural fortitude because in the end, everything might look the same on the outside but be quite different on the inside.
We redesigned roles and responsibilities for a digital landscape, and now advise customers on how to do the same. The truth: Unless (and until) your culture supports an employee’s ability to accept and embrace change, you’ll never realize the value of digital transformation.
The Way People Work is Changing
With mobility we are no longer rooted to a place or to a hierarchy. Collaboration can happen anytime, anywhere and with anyone.
As we adopt new digital tools to help people do their work, what a ‘normal’ day on the job looks like continues to evolve. As employers, it’s up to us to adjust quickly – rethinking work styles, training and retraining people, and rearranging our enterprise to appropriately leverage technology to transform business.
